    Verdict

    Multiple course winner Mediterranean Sea cannot be easily dismissed despite a couple of recent below par efforts and Polytrack winner Stentorian has a chance if handling the surface. But Sommersturm is harder to fancy given he's been well beaten in earlier attempts on the Fibresand. Low Key is potentially well treated if rediscovering his form though Discay won over 1m4f here in February and he makes more appeal. CALCULATING ended a long losing run when recording his sixth win at the track last week and is taken to defy a penalty off his current mark now back to something like his best.
