SHANAHEE BRIAN (5) has missed the frame at his last couple but placed three back at this track and he does perform well at this trip. Has the ability and expected to go close. CREATIVE WAY (4) has had a modest start to this campaign in two runs but will appreciate the drop in grade. Unplaced first up at this track then finished fifth, beaten 5 lengths, in a D3 at this track last start over 275m (18.04). Will find this more suitable. MANX SASKIA (1) has good credentials for this, winning a D3 two back before finishing runner-up at her latest appearance in a D3 at this track over 275m (17.74). No surprise to see her back in winning form. RAPIDO RAMONA (3) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.
