COWARDLY JOHN (6) has a strong record this track and trip with four wins and two placings from 10 starts. Missed the frame latest (28.20) when fourth over 450m at this track in an A2. Rates a leading player. LINTON RALPH (4) tends to take a while to wind up, running on to score two back before spotting a start latest and finishing on strongly into third (28.00) in an A2 at this track. Expected to feature again. KIPPERS PUMA (2) stalked the lead from the inside draw before finishing third last start (27.74) at this track in A2 over 450m. Can measure up. CHARLIES TOPSHOT (3) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.
