    Verdict

    A lack of pace can sometimes be a problem in these small fields but the presence of the headstrong Spic 'n Span should prevent that happening here. A return to this track could bring out the best in this four-time C&D winner. First Swallow has also been known to take the lead but his recent form leaves him a bit to find in this company, while Ingleby Star has yet to win on Fibresand. The vote goes to YOUR GIFTED, runner-up over C&D on her last three starts, she should get a good tow in the early stages and is weighted to take advantage.
