Unusually there isn’t a lot of Fibresand form on display here and whilst some of these are capable of good form none of them come here in much form. CHEVALLIER ran poorly last time out but his pedigree gives every hope that he’ll act here and his trainer is building a decent record at the track. Georgian Bay also comes into the mix although his finishing effort last time left a little to be desired and Showboating would need to be respected on his previous record here. Poet’s Society is very much the wild card here (never tried over this trip) but the sire (Poet’s Voice) is building a good record here and he may be worth a speculative bet. Andrew Balding is another trainer with a good record here and his Intimate Art looks as though he act on Fibresand and appears to be a better horse on synthetic surfaces.
