9/1
Promising second at Kempton on yard debut in March and went one better under a more positive ride to score there the following month. Only twelfth of 16 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Could bounce back.

11/2
Three-time C&D winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win here in March. 11/1, respectable third of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 29 days ago. Should give another good account, but perhaps not quite as well treated as some of his opposition here.

Eldrickjones (10/3), Longlai (9/2), Billy Mill (11/2), Noble Order (7/1), Farasi Lane (9/1), Love De Vega (10/1), Swiss Ace (11/1), Zip (12/1), Mascapone (16/1), Northern Spirit (22/1), Obelix (33/1)

Verdict

ELDRICKJONES made a pleasing seasonal return when runner-up at Southwell last month and is fancied to go one better here. Zip has a good course record and arrives after a sound effort last time, so also merits consideration alongside Longlai.
