GOTHIC ICON (2) was the fastest winner on the program last time out, running away to score by 4.5 lengths (26.99) at this track. Looks the one to beat. ROYSTON ROCKET (6) had trap 5 last start and ran well to finish second, beaten a nose, (26.60) at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Leading chance. HOLLYWELL ORCHID (1) was an impressive winner two back but last start drifted back and wound up strongly to finish a 2.25 lengths third at this track (26.95). Has a strong record out of this box with five wins and two minor placings from nine starts. Bold showing expected. BALLINULTY JESS (4) showed great speed to lead all the way last start. Big chance again.
