BILLIS HOFFA (2) goes very well this course and distance starting 15 times for six wins and six minors. Hit the frame latest (28.60) when third at this track in a OR3. Expected to go close. ASHTONS ERNIE (3) boasts a strong record this journey here with seven wins and three minors from 17 tries. In the money last time at this track (28.83) in a OR3, finishing a 3.5 lengths second. Suited here and expected to run well. BALLYMAC OG (5) is in top form with back to back wins. Claimed a S2 two back then scored by 1.3 lengths in an A2 last time at this track over 480m (28.78). Rises a grade but can measure up with repeat of latest. DARK DREAMER (1) is always a threat when she draws this box.
