SMOKEY MALONE has taken well to the Fibresand and there looks more to come from Julia Feilden’s grey. He placed over track and trip before winning over a mile here and can defy a penalty in a weak contest. Kempton winner Iesha beat Tamigi on that occasion and has switched yards having placed at the same track subsequently. She has her first start on this surface while Johnny Boom makes his handicap debut having failed to figure in novice company and has been recently gelded.
