    Verdict

    BATRAAN has returned a losing favourite on his last three starts now after finishing runner-up at Wolverhampton last time. But he won’t get may better opportunities to open his account and Roger Varian has a good strike rate on the Fibresand. Galeophobia placed at Hamilton on her debut last summer only to disappoint at York while stablemate Andalaska Bear has shown nothing so far.
