Forecasts

Azam (11/4), The Resdev Way (7/2), Katie Gale (4/1), Serenity Now (9/2), Cousin Khee (7/1), Silver Quay (10/1), Caged Lightning (14/1), Eurato (25/1)

Verdict

Hardly any shortage of protagonists that have run well on Fibresand particularly over staying trips but THE RESDEV WAY looks the progressive one in the field having won impressively here on his last two visits. Cousin Khee would have chances on his previous form here but his old quirks looked to coming back to haunt him last time and bigger dangers may emerge from the likes of Katie Gale and Serenity Now. Azam is the only member of the field who hasn’t been tested on Fibresand before but given his pedigree he should act on the surface and is an interesting newcomer to Southwell.
