Was much too speedy in front when winning by 2 1/2L last time at Pontefract. Expecting to settle positively. Has run into the placings at every start this campaign. Very capable of taking this out.

Blitzed its rivals when winning by 6L last start at Haydock and having second career run. William J Haggas & England Haggas yard are on fire recently. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

At $13.00 ran 10th last time at Curragh but up against weaker rivals. Gets the perfect draw. Looking elsewhere.

At $151.00 was ordinary when 8th last start at this track but drawn nicely. Might be ridden for luck. Very unlikely.
