A BIT OF EBONY (5) had trap 5 and was game in defeat when only a head from Afternoon Call in second (29.43) at this track. Sure to be about the mark. A BIT OF JEFF (4) had trap 4 and was game in defeat when only 1.5 lengths from Freedom Layton in second (29.61) at this track. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to his name from four starts. Hard to beat again. FREEDOM LAYTON (2) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a narrow second then scored by 1.5 lengths in an A6 last time at this track over 480m (29.48). Rises a grade but can measure up with repeat of latest. DROOPYS HANORA (6) is last start winner who looks one of the chances.
