25/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, made more impact when sixth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 80/1) 20 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

9/4

Pulled hard but produced a career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 17 days ago. Clearly has some quirks but may do better still if he settles down.

13/2

Forecasts

Hardman (9/4), Pearl Sands (3/1), Oceanic Wonder (7/2), Uwaittillplaytime (5/1), Showmethewayhome (13/2), Miss Idunn (25/1), Thea Bell (80/1)

OCEANIC WONDER gained reward for several decent efforts in defeat when off the mark at Redcar last month and Tim Easterby's filly can confirm placings with the quirky Hardman, who has since scored himself at Chelmsford in the interim. Pearl Sands took advantage of a drop in grade at Ffos Las last time and completes the shortlist.
