DEL RAYO (4) continued the good recent form when he finished just 3 lengths away in third last time out over 1673m at this track (Synthetic). Goes very well at this journey, boasting two wins from four starts and shapes as a key contender. LIGHTNING CHARLIE (1) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a third at this track (Synthetic) over 1207m. Should park just off the speed. Best form puts him right in this. TOMMY BEE (3) has been racing well without winning. Last start finished third, beaten 1.5 lengths, over 1673m at this track (Synthetic). Genuine performer so another big run is likely. BASSCOAT (5) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1673m at Fairmount Park (Dirt) after he was well back on straightening. Likely improver who should be thereabouts.
