Verdict
Everkyllachy found one too good here a week ago despite escaping a penalty for an earlier success at Lingfield. The veteran Holiday Magic got his head back in front over track and trip last time but CUSTARD THE DRAGON (NAP) is overdue a win. He’s scored seven times on the Fibresand and recent placed efforts here, having slipped down the weights, suggest a return to winning ways is imminent. Palazzo returned a beaten favourite last time having won here before that while Sir Rodneyredblood has yet to race over this far.
