In depth

Verdict

BEACH BREAK took well to the Fibresand on his debut at the track last week when beaten only a neck over today’s trip. Donald McCain’s winning hurdler faces an easier task in this and can go one better. Bill Cody placed over course and distance earlier last year and returns to action while Lucky Robin won over 1m6f at the track back in November. Mister Universum finished second over the latter trip more recently and looks best of the rest.
