ON THE NOSE (3) comes here following a placing in handy time (15.97) over 261m at this track. Hard to top on the time from last start. LEVEL ANCONA (2) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten a neck into second (27.64) at this track in an A1 over 450m. Form from her last run is proving strong. Leading player again. BARDEN BELLA (1) hit the frame with a close-up second two runs back then claimed an A2 by 4 lengths at this track over 450m (27.90) last time. Goes up a notch but will give backers a sight. ALLOWDALE POPPY (6) has been in great recent form scoring two on end, the latest an A2 by 4.5 lengths at this track over 450m (27.53). Tackles tougher grade here but in form and looks a contender again.
