Useful sprint handicapper who has been in good form of late and made his fibresand debut at the course last time out. Probably raced a little closer to the pace than was ideal and high draw makes life tougher this time around.

8/1
Three-time winner at the course but lost his unbeaten record here on his penultimate outing and very disappointing over 5f last time. On that run he has work to do with a few of the rivals in this race and will need to bounce back to take a hand.

9/1
Won on her debut at the track (not unusual for one from this stable) over 5f off a mark of 81. Last two starts over C&D have been disappointing, both in higher grade than the win came in and this again looks a tougher assignment.

9/2
Acts really well on this surface and is a seven-time winner here with the latest success coming in January over 5f with a few of these rivals behind. Beaten next time out but still ran creditably off today's mark and a likely sort to take a leading role.

Not been seen on this surface before but given his sire he should act well enough on fibresand. Didn't run much of a race last time out and mark is potentially a little high.

80/1
Multiple winner last year with six wins under his belt and the first three wins of his career actually came on fibresand over trips further than today. Last five wins have come over the minimum trip but has been off the course a while now as he returns to fibresand.

Another one in this to make his fibresand debut after what was a decent season last year that contained three wins. Well below form on his last turf start however and more needed here on his seasonal reappearance.

15/2
Has a very creditable record at Southwell recording form figures of 231621 with the latest win coming in a seller over 5f, not surprisingly he won that easily but on his past form he's well up to this grade. The high draw could make life more difficult than his last start over C&D though.

Yet to win on fibresand after five attempts although has been placed on three occasions. Not seen here for over a year and last run at Wolverhampton is best ignored (forced wide) but still looks to have a tough enough task.

Age: 4|  Weight: 8-12| J: J F Egan| T: J Butler| OR:  82
8/1
Has really struck form this winter, completing an AW hat-trick on various surfaces. The winning run came to an end on her last start over C&D (raised in grade) but she ran creditably from a less than ideal draw. Still has work to do here but clearly likes the surface and not totally written off.

Bring On A Spinnerb,e/s22
Age: 4|  Weight: 8-7| J: Aaron Jones(3)| T: S C Williams| OR:  77
5/2
Goes very well here recording form figures of 11151 with the defeat coming over 5f when raised in grade and finding things happening too quickly for him. Dropped in grade and back over 6f when back to winning ways last time out and this is essentially a harder test than he has faced of late back over the minimum trip.

Forecasts

Bring On A Spinner (5/2), Razin' Hell (9/2), Dungannon (15/2), Lady Nayef (8/1), Meadway (8/1), Showdaisy (9/1), Distant Past (12/1), Sir Billy Wright (14/1), Seve (16/1), Orient Class (50/1), Seamster (80/1)

Verdict

Another good handicap over the sprint trip on the fibresand with plenty of these having clashed before. Bring On A Spinner has an admirable record here but there is a slight doubt that this 5f will prove a little sharp for him. Dungannon will find this a tougher test than when winning a weak seller last time out over C&D and the high draw is a slight drawback as it is for Distant Past. Lady Nayef still has work to do at the weights but she does like this surface along with Meadway who if you forgive his last run here comes into the picture. RAZIN HELL keeps improving and sets a good standard, he may be able to add to his seven wins at the track. 1. Razin' Hell 2. Meadway 3. Dungannon
