FAVOURITE PLACE (1) missed the frame but ran a decent 17.31 when sixth over 275m at this track last start in a D2. Top run latest and looms as the one to beat. GROUCHOS BADGER (3) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 4 lengths at this track in a handy 16.93 beating Tullycanna Lass. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Likely to be in the finish. RUFFIAN BLUE (4) finished in the minors last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 275m at this track, taking a D2 in a brilliant 17.01. Must include on winning run two back. LUMINOUS DREAM (2) recorded a one length win (17.06) in a D2 last time at this track. Has two wins already from this trap.
