Verdict
VIBES looks like the one to side with here after an eight-length romp at Lingfield when last seen. Fastar had a couple of these in behind last time out but the handicapper has given him a chance of following up while Alemaratalyoum may do better now he gets the assistance of Silvestre De Sousa in the saddle.
