      Verdict

      Steed has improved on the Fibresand of late, winning his last two starts, and having the form of his latest victory boosted by subsequent winner Bentley. But even if he can translate that form to the Polytrack, he'll do well to get the better of STRIKER TORRES. Geoff Oldroyd's charge, who saves his best for this track, was beaten less than a length over C&D on his latest start and is dropped in class here. Diapason ran well here on her return from an absence and could make the frame, along with Army Of Stars who has the beating of Little Luxury.
