        Verdict

        FIREBEAM can be forgiven his odds-on failure at Southwell last time as there's a good chance he didn't take to the Fibresand. He'd made an impressive debut before that when going close at Doncaster with a couple of subsequent winners behind and is taken to make amends here. Escape To Glory was unfancied on his Polytrack debut here but finished a respectable third and better is expected from the 90,000 dollar colt today, while Abacist and Aaranyow should also improve on what they've shown so far. Newcomer Pressbuttonb was a surprisingly cheap purchase considering he's related to six winners and could prove best of the remainder.
