ALNWICK SOUNESS (3) scored two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 10 length 4th at this track (30.03). Has ability and looks hard to stop. EKITIKE (6) had been racing well prior to his last start fourth at this track following an A7 win three back with a second placing. Can feature with the right run. MARIES HOPE (4) looks overdue after a minor placing two back then finishing third at her latest appearance in an A5 at this track over 480m (29.92). This easier so not to be underestimated. ALNWICK TEENY (2) placed last start from this box and is in the mix again.
