FRUITY TOPMAN (2) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on his excellent win the start prior, getting around this track over 275m in 17.18. Looks the one to beat on win two back. RUFFIAN ROUNDY (6) scorched around 275m in 17.15 when winning a D2 at this track last start. Bold showing expected again. FAVOURITE PLACE (1) hit the ground running off the low draw last start and was never headed (27.42) at this track in a B1 over 450m. One of the prime contenders. CLONOON ANSAR (5) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.
