Verdict
Lake Sand popped up over track and trip recently to finally open his account with a disappointing Puffin Island well beaten. Heat And Dust finished a long way behind the winner when runner-up at Wolverhampton and was beaten by Boy George here before that. DOVE DIVINE has yet to win but went close attempting to land a gamble at Lingfield when last racing on the Polytrack. Beaten at Brighton on a couple of subsequent outings, she gets another chance back on this surface.
