Aryal has returned a losing favourite in three of his four starts, including at Lingfield last time. Blinkers are applied as he drops down in distance for his Fibresand debut but ON WITH THE DANCE makes more appeal. He showed some progress to claim third place at Lingfield last week and can land this if taking to the surface. Derby To Dubai may finish closer but the remainder with experience have shown nothing as yet so the newcomers Woodley Wonder and Solarmaite could well figure, especially the latter who is related to a course winner.
