In depth
Verdict
MININGGOLD (NAP) has won three times on the Fibresand and looks set to add to that tally having been denied by only a nose over track and trip last time. He can confirm latest running with Sandridge Lad and Samovar and go one better. Red Stripes is also at home on this surface and arrives in good form having won at Chelmsford recently while Lydiate Lady has been threatening to get her head back in front on Turf and has won here in the past.
