Outpost has so far shown his best on the Fibresand while Saskia's Dream and Fame Again have done their recent winning on the Polytrack. She's A Character is a three-time course winner though her latest victory came in a claimer and preference is for CHOOKIE ROYALE. Keith Dalgleish's charge scored over C&D the last time he encountered good ground and Jason Hart's 5lb claim allows him to race off the same mark today. Zip Lock, Les Verguettes and Clumber Place are all recent winners in heavy ground and the latter is expected to come out best of that trio on this likely faster surface.
