Verdict

BISPHAM GREEN ended last season with a string of seconds but is far ahead of today's opposition on all known form. He's yet to race on Fibresand but won't need to be at his best to get the better of this bunch and will likely start a short price. It's hard to make a serious case for any of the others with a handicap rating as none have looked like winning so far this year and Combustible could prove the biggest threat. She never threatened when fourth here last time but had The Codger behind and is capable of better on only her third start.
