        Verdict

        Noel Wilson's UNITED NATIONS has not always been the easiest to win with but was in good form here this time last year and he looks worth siding with on his first start since March as he can race off just a 3lb higher mark than when landing a handicap over course and distance in January with the main dangers rated as Davana and Celtic Step. Peter Niven's gelding has run well in his last two starts but has yet to win on the Fibresand and he may have to settle for minor honours again. Ten Pole Tudor won well at Wolverhampton in a seller two starts ago but disappointed either side of that and a bigger threat is likely to come from Jonnie Skull. Phil McEntee's gelding was a good winner here over seven furlongs last time and should not be inconvenienced by the extra furlong today so has to be considered. Davana is closely matched with Ten Pole Tudor on running at Wolverhampton last month and has to be considered on his Fibresand debut but a better bet looks to be United Nations, who can win here again.
