      Verdict

      Fiducia is probably the best of those with previous experience ahead of Chester fifth Tommy's Secret but she's nothing special, despite a Weatherby's Super Sprint entry, and was also engaged at Sandown last night. We'll take a chance on SMILING SHARK who is closely related to a couple of useful winners in the States, though fellow newcomers Whistling Buddy and Con Leche may also play a part in a low-key opener.
