      Verdict

      FRONTIER FIGHTER was beaten only a neck in last year's renewal. He's won three times here since then and looks the one to beat with a recent outing at Kempton under his belt. The normally consistent Aqua Ardens was well beaten at Kempton on Thursday and prolific Polytrack winner Grey Mirage is of more interest making his debut on the Fibresand. Pearl Nation is 11lb higher than when scoring over a mile at this venue back in August but Modern Tutor could figure if taking to the surface. The remaining pair may struggle upped in class for this.
