SHAWKANTANGO looks every bit the Fibresand specialist. Beaten on his last three starts on Polytrack and turf, he rattled up a hat-trick on this surface before that and makes plenty of appeal on his return. Tsar Bomba won here on his reappearance in February but was put firmly in his place by the selection last time, while Ace Master has been in fine form at this track of late but will need to improve again off a higher mark today. Dancing Freddy is a winner over 6f here but has ran below par on his last three starts.
