        Verdict

        DAPPER MAN has improved steadily with each of his three runs on this surface. most notably when only losing out in a photo finish with course specialist Archimedes recently. He runs off an unchanged mark and can go one better for the Roger Fell yard which has ticked along nicely on the all-weather this year. Course and distance winner Archie Stevens has performed consistently during the same period and should remain competitive on a surface he clearly handles well, despite a small rise in the weights, but Fareeq and Racquet have yet to encounter this surface, though both are to be respected if taking to Fibresand. Likewise Seebring, who improved when scoring on his final outing of last season.
