Verdict

SLEET handled the Fibresand well enough when fourth over track and trip back in April. Eric Wheeler's charge may be up to landing this poor contest on his first start since. Beggers Luck is on a decent mark if proving suited to the surface but recent Wolverhampton runner-up Trigger Park was well beaten in both previous starts on the Fibresand. Like most the remainder, Scarlet Bounty arrives in woeful form despite sliding down the weights.
