CASTLEROCK ABBY (4) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at this track over 480m behind Slaneyside Bud (30.18) in an A5. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to her name from six starts. Should be very hard to beat this time. ASHVILLE CHIEF (5) has been in the frame at his last two runs, most recently when third (29.90) in an A5 over 480m at this track. Can find the frame this time. GWAN SO WILL (1) will break from the inside trap. Last start finished 4th over 480m at this track beaten 16 lengths (31.00) behind Canvas Tricia in an A6 on December 13. With even luck and a clean start should be around the money. MALLOGS CAILIN (6) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.
