Forecasts

Diocletian (3/1), Tor (9/2), Berrahri (5/1), Overhaugh Street (7/1), Angel Gabrial (8/1), Marengo (9/1), Heart Of Soul (11/1), Ebqaa (12/1), Four Kingdoms (14/1), Miss Ranger (20/1), Dragon Mountain (25/1), Liva (25/1), Bill Cody (33/1)

Verdict

He's not getting any younger but Angel Gabrial is clearly still relishing his job and scored here last month over 2m. He is respected but the drop in trip might not be ideal. Diocletian flopped here in May but will be better suited over this trip based on his Sandown run since and joins last-time-out second here Four Kingdoms on the shortlist. Marengo was rather luckless here on previous visit and can go well but OVERHAUGH STREET might be the answer. Second on soft ground over 1m4½f last month at the track, this longer trip looks suitable and Ed De Giles' runner should be able to get to the front again from his low berth.
  1. Overhaugh Street
  2. Marengo
  3. Angel Gabrial
