LITTLE won a seller at Wolverhampton last time and should go close if handling the surface. Zebs Lad has a chance at the weights but ran a shocker at Kempton last month so Ffos Las winner As A Dream makes more appeal on her Fibresand debut. The remainder are harder to fancy on today's terms unless the lightly-raced pair Come Up And See Me and Striking Stone prove suited to the track and show a big improvement.
