Dapper Man (3/1), Fareeq (10/3), Archie Stevens (4/1), Seebring (4/1), Racquet (7/1), Novabridge (8/1), Groundworker (12/1), Tina Teaspoon (33/1), On The High Tops (100/1)

Form on this surface is often the deciding factor in these races and DAPPER MAN despite not winning on Fibresand yet has run some good races here especially on his last two visits and he deserves to get off the mark here. Archie Stevens is another with a good record here and having produced one of his best runs on the surface last time out is the main danger here. Racquet is lurking on a dangerous mark if he takes to Fibresand and is ready to go while the far from straightforward Groundworker and another newcomer Fareeq to Fibresand are worth watching in the market.
