        Verdict

        FIGARO FLYER is our pick with Discanti and Kyle noted in the market. Although he is far from the most consistent of winners, Paul Howling's gelding is in off a light racing weight and having won on the Fibresand in the past, we believe that he can improve upon a promising effort at Wolverhampton last time out. Discanti was hammered by the handicapper for a victory at Ayr. He should have stripped fitter for a first run back. Colorus has had a recent outing on the turf but prior to that, he had been in good nick over this five furlong trip. Dragon Flame is on reappearance. It will be interesting to see what the market makes of his chances. Came Back is better known in plating grade and may need to come down the handicap. Golden Dixie is on a losing run while Regal Royale has had a couple of pipeopeners of late. Figaro Flyer can prove the most sensible option.
