Verdict
Ghostwing's recent improvement has come on the Fibresand and he has a bit to prove back on the Polytrack under a penalty for last week's win. PICK A LITTLE makes more appeal as he rattled up a hat-trick on the turf during the summer and was returning from a four-month absence when fifth here a week ago. Hughie Morrison's charge is fancied to reverse running with third-placed Woolfall Sovereign and take this. Restless Bay and Frequency finished further behind in the same race, while Tislaam and Tamareen drop back in trip having scored over 7f here recently.
