Verdict
Frequency carried over his good form from the all-weather to score at Redcar last time but this year's five wins have all been in claimers, while Feel The Heat will have improved for his recent comeback and just got the better of Ezra Church when winning his maiden last May. The latter has won on the Fibresand recently but was well beaten back on the turf last month. Whispered Times went close over C&D last season but may need the run on his reappearance and TASTE THE VICTORY is preferred back over today's trip after he faded quickly in the final furlong over 1m2f here on his return.
