JACKTAVERN JAX (2) was a dominant winner of his first try in a handicap and breaking from 11m, scoring by 2.5 lengths over 480m at this track (29.42). Chasing another handicap win and will break 11m from scratch. Sure to take a lot from that experience and can measure up again. PLAN OF ESCAPE (1) continued the strong recent form in handicaps when she finished second, beaten 1.75 lengths, last start starting off 14m at this track over 480m (29.88). Will break 15m from scratch. Likely to measure up again. HUGH BOY (5) was below best last time at this track (29.94) in a HCP, finishing a 9 length fifth. Has two wins already from this trap. Can hit the frame with the right run. BRAMBLE EMERALD (6) was unplaced at this track two starts ago then improved to score last time out off scratch in a handicap at this track over 480m (29.74). Will start off scratch. Talented handicapper who has 14 wins and 14 placings from 45 runs from the staggered start. Likely to play a big role.
