Come On Dave finally came good at the fourteenth time of asking in a seller at Southwell but even that puts him in the frame for this moderate event. Mecca's Team has won twice, both times on fast ground, but Tongalooma is slipping in the ratings to a reasonable mark and isn't out of this. See Vermont has the form in the book to go close and has only run twice this season but MR MO JO has been a bit more like his old self on his last two starts over this C&D and should be up to landing this. Chosen One has won eight times in his career including at Pontefract last month and should make a bold bid for number nine.
