Verdict

Bravestofthebrave lost out by only a short-head over C&D last month and has leading claims. He was beaten by the Mark Johnston-trained Shieldmaiden on that occasion and the latter's stablemate Eyedoro could figure here having finished runner-up at this track in October. However, CHABADA was a close third in a decent maiden at Kempton on her debut and a chance is taken she'll act on the Fibresand. Jamie Spencer is on board for his only ride of the meeting. Bumper and hurdles winner Candelita could prove best of the rest on her debut on the Flat.
