TOUCH THE CLOUDS has won two of his last three starts and is the one to beat on that evidence. He's yet to race on this surface but both winning relatives scored on the Fibresand so there's a good chance Kevin Ryan's charge will run up to his mark. Meebo has a chance on today's terms on her form in Ireland. She makes her debut for a new yard today but Sweet Angelica and Who Splashed Me look up against it at the weights. Sleet is a half-brother to a winner on the Fibresand and worth a second glance making his debut at this level.
