Spun Gold (3/1), Mister Music (9/2), Chaucer's Tale (5/1), Trading Punches (8/1), Pearl Spectre (8/1), Zefferino (8/1), Sooqaan (8/1), Monsieur Jimmy (10/1), Zaeem (10/1), Boots And Spurs (16/1), Storm King (16/1)

This looks to be the most competitive race on the card with plenty in this who have run well and won on Fibresand in the past. Mister Music is the obvious starting point as he puts his unbeaten record here on the line stepping up in trip and he won’t be far away. Sooqaan and Spun Gold have wins to their name over C&D but may need to find a little more off their current marks with Zaeem looking as though he’ll be better over 7f despite the good recent form of his yard. CHAUCER’S TALE has to prove himself in this grade but he acts well on the Fibresand and may well be able to improve on his two runner-up slots here so far. If there is one to watch in the betting them it’s Trading Punches who represents connections who have had plenty of success around here and have landed a few gambles in the past on the Fibresand.
