Verdict

This looks between Shostakovich and BILKO PAK. The former has three wins on Fibresand to his credit and also won at Ffos Las last month, but the latter comes out best at the weights. Ann Duffield's charge won a couple of claimers last year including a victory over C&D and should be spot on now after a recent pipe-opener in better company at Chester. He looks the one to beat here with February's Kempton winner Kassaab making most appeal of the remainder.
