    Verdict

    Barnet Fair and Fifth In Line have both posted efforts on the Polytrack good enough to win this contest but are making their Fibresand debuts. Sir Mark Prescott's newcomer El Djebena would be of interest if attracting support in the betting but this can go to SPEEDY JOE. He showed a big improvement on his debut effort at Wolverhampton when finishing a close-up third over C&D last month and normal improvement can see him take this.
