Forecasts

Great Return (5/2), Jabbaar (5/1), Shine Baby Shine (6/1), Caged Lightning (13/2), Brigadoon (8/1), Good Time Ahead (10/1), Samtu (10/1), Tatting (12/1), Multellie (16/1), Last Chance Paddy (20/1)

Verdict

A staying contest with some depth to end the card with plenty that have scored on the Fibresand over this distance and further. Great Return can’t be included in that group and despite his good recent form he makes his debut here but is by a sire (New Approach) who has yet to have a winner on Fibresand. Jabbaar and Samtu are both suited by this surface and should run well with Caged Lightening another who is always capable of making his mark on Fibresand. Shine Baby Shine will be dangerous even off her new mark but a chance is taken with GOOD TIME AHEAD who has compiled a good record here and could well appreciate a return to a surface which saw him show improved form.
  1. Good Time Ahead
  2. Jabbaar
  3. Shine Baby Shine
