Ridley Didley scored over C&D in January but hasn't ran up to the same level since and this can go to EFISTORM. Conor Dore's charge had been finding it difficult to get his head back in front in handicap company but returned to winning ways when dropped into a claimer at Wolverhampton last week. He's won at this track before and is taken to follow up here. Spic 'n Span had Clear Ice well behind when landing a handicap here last time but has a bit to find with the selection, while Kalahari Desert and Ronnie Howe also look up against it.
