FIRST AMBITION (2) ran a strong 28.83 when winning over 480m at this track last start. Has the ability and looks hard to top. PORTHALL FINN (1) followed a moderate sixth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish sixth, beaten 7 lengths, in an A2 at this track over 480m (29.33). Expected to do much better this level. SOUTHWIND NED (4) has a strong record here with six wins and four placings from 18 starts. Missed the frame latest (30.28) when fourth over 480m at this track in an A2. Looks well placed here and among the chances. LYNNIA MURPHY (5) followed a moderate fifth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish sixth, beaten 18 lengths, in an A2 at this track over 480m (30.43). No surprise to see him back in form.
