BILLY TEXAS (1) returned last time with a solid third at this track over 1000m. He strips fitter, and looks perfectly placed to break through for his first win. NORTH MAJOR (3) returns from a spell of 11 weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fourth over 1000m at this track. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Will prove tough to beat. ALMA UNICA (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1380m at Cristal, finishing fifth. Finds a similar assignment, and he has the talent to test this line-up. UNDER SNOW (5) is yet to break through after four career starts. Managed to find the placings at this track two starts back before finishing sixth over 1400m at this track last start. Each way.
