A couple of these stand out on recent course and distance form. CHOC'A'MOCA finished runner-up here last month with Tuibama a length behind in third. The former was having his first start of the year and Paul Midgley's charge is fancied to confirm running and land this with that pipe-opener under his belt. It's hard to make a serious case for any of the remainder in a poor handicap. Prince James finished runner-up on the Polytrack in March and Pull The Pin scored on the Fibresand at Southwell last month. Prigsnov Dancer was still beaten nine lengths when second at Nottingham last time but Bondi Beach Boy has scope for improvement.
