        Verdict

        Fyodor is fit and fancied, so can see off the threat of Polish Emperor, Piccled and Tag Team in the day's feature race. Fyodor has taken really well to the all-weather, having won on his Wolverhampton bow before finishing a narrow second at Lingfield last time. He was sent off as favourite to beat Fromsong at the Surrey track and lost nothing in defeat, so another big run looks assured on this, his first attempt on the fibresand. Polish Emperor has gone up a stone in the weights since last year but continues to run well, and indeed he ran a blinder from stall one when a close third to Celtic Mill here last time. He has to be considered ahead of Piccled who was behind him then. The latter has since finished a close second on the faster Wolverhampton Polytrack, but this race is tougher. Tag Team's last victory was at Lingfield in February but he has since come down the weights and ran well when third at the Surrey venue 10 days ago. Overall, Fyodor has the best credentials and should get back to winning ways.
