STOPHERS ROSE (6) goes very well this course and distance starting nine times for three wins and six minors. Comes off a (16.72) win last time, scoring by 2.75 lengths in a D3 over 277m at this track. Expected to be in the finish. PLUCKANES BELL (4) was a last start winner (17.14) from Box 4 at this track. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Bold showing expected again. MARINAS PEARL (1) followed a D2 win two back with a sound third, beaten 2.25 lengths, in a D1 at this track over 277m (16.98). This easier and can find winning form again. BALLYNEW SOLDIER (3) followed a minor placing two runs ago with a plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 7 lengths, in a D1 at this track over 277m (17.40). Watch for a better run this easier company.
