In depth

Verdict

Gabrial The Tiger has an incredible course record having won five of six previous races around here. He also has Sean Davis’ claim in his favour, though Doncaster scorer Right Action looks to be Richard Fahey’s first string. Kupa River is much improved and beat How Bizarre and Jacob Black here last month and Logi is potentially well treated and back up in trip. SUREYOUTOLDME was in good form around here at this time last year and has been going well on Tapeta lately so can get back to winning ways.
