In depth
Verdict
This is anybody's race, with only a speculative vote going to SPIRIT OF ZEB. The latter won his only previous start on Fibresand at this time last year and can race off a lower mark today. Llewellyn scored over 7f here recently while Tarando makes his course debut as he bids for a four-timer off a 5lb higher mark. Recent winners Daylight and Cloak And Degas have experience of the track, Shades of Silk and Alpha Tauri are course and distance winners while Irish raider Split The Atom plus Pennine Warrior and Red Harry are others to consider.
