Trainer Tony Rivalland sends out King Of The Gauls in Race 4 and he is the possible Pick 6 banker.
He produced a promising debut effort in a competitive field over this course and distance. It must be noted that Sovereign State has come out and won again since.
The son of Vercingetorix found betting support that day which suggests that he was showing good work at home.
He would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, he should take a power of beating.
Patronage from the Michael Roberts stable may be the horse to close off the meeting.
He showed good speed over this course and distance last time, fought hard all the way to the line but was touched off by Beechamwood Boy.
The 6yo gelding drops back in class. Rachel Venniker steps back into the saddle and he can notch up his seventh career victory.
