Belle De Lawers (9/4), Artful Rogue (5/2), Mambo Dancer (3/1), The Resdev Way (8/1), Gabrial's Star (10/1), Mr Snoozy (16/1), Lady Clitico (20/1)

Verdict

GABRIAL'S STAR joined Marjorie Fife for 6,000 gns following the second of his two successes in Southwell claimers (on New Years Day), and has the ideal opportunity to quickly recoup some of that purchase price in this winnable stayers event. The useful Harrison Shaw is booked to remove a handy 7lb from his back, and that means he's very difficult to oppose for a stable that very much know the time of day. His last visit to this track was in the Northumberland Vase in 2016 (rated 89), and whilst he's clearly not the force of old, he looks far stronger than these rivals. The Resdev Way will get his day eventually back at his favoured track and he's one to monitor for the longer term as his handicap mark begins to fall.
