DEEP CHAMP (1) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1000m. Has the pace and draw to take up a good early position. Finds a suitable race and can build on solid recent efforts. OTHERSIDE (3) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing sixth when starting at $4.20. Hard to beat in this suitable race. OLD ENGLISH (7) returned from a spell a month ago when she was a sound fifth over 1000m at this track. Strips fitter and can feature. DOCE CECILIA (2) has been freshened up since she finished seventh over 1200m at this track six weeks ago. Should be prominent from the outset. Sure to be thereabouts.
