DEARNESIDE DUKE (4) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was an A6 winner three back (30.97) at Nottingham over 500m. Has the ability and can find winning form this time. HARRIER SAM (5) was never in contention last time at this track, but prior to that won by 1.5 lengths at this track (16.98) beating Bluntys Blue Eye in a D4 on December 17. Likely to be thereabouts. TAKE EM ON (6) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind Caseys Mario (17.04) in a D4. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and eight minor placings to his credit. Leading chance. RIDGEDALE HOFFA (2) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.
