CALEDONIA PRINCE had been in fine form at this track before his latest three-length defeat in a higher grade. Back at this level, he can confirm earlier running with Myraid and return to winning ways. The latter's stablemate Moheebb can race race off a lower mark back on the all-weather but has yet to figure on an artificial surface and Mataajir is 10lb higher than when scoring over C&D in January. Funky Munky has won over hurdles since winning on the Flat at Ayr in October and could figure along with multiple C&D winner General Tufto.
