Verdict
FLEETWOODSANDS returned to winning ways over 7f here last month. The C&D winner remains on a winning mark, despite a 5lb rise, and is taken to follow up. Land Hawk's best form entitles him to consideration though it's hard to predict when he'll produce it, while Join Up failed to figure off a higher mark last time having scored over C&D before that. Justcallmehandsome is another well beaten recently after winning at this track last month and German import Engai could prove a bigger threat on his debut in this country.
