CHARLOTTES HOPE (6) has a strong record this trip with eight wins and five placings from 20 starts. Missed the frame latest (28.35) when fourth over 450m at this track in a HCP. Rates a leading player. RILEYS REX (4) racing well. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at his latest appearance in an A6 at this track over 450m (28.06). Back to handicaps and will break off 2m. Talented handicapper who has two wins and four placings from eight runs from the staggered start. Should enjoy switching to the handicaps. YOU DONT KNOW (1) wasn't far away making handicap debut, finishing fourth breaking from the 6m mark over 450m at this track (28.11). Better for the experience. Rates among the winning hopes. POLERONE KOP (5) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.
