FOLLOW THE BAND (1) jumped cleanly from the low draw last start to lead all the way (29.82) at The Meadows in a Grade 4/5 over 525m. Won at his only start from this box. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. ASTON NERO (6) is on a hot streak recording a 29.78 win over 515m at Sandown last start following on from a quick 27.26 success at Horsham over 485m the start prior. Bold showing expected again. OVER ACHIEVER (7) flew around 410m at Horsham in 23.26 three back then has been in the money the last two since. Top win three back and can measure up again. NICKI WHOOP (4) is worth including.

Good effort to score just six days ago over 525m at The Meadows by 1.75 lengths in a Grade 4/5. Can make it back to back wins.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won by a head at this track (28.40) beating Cornhill Prince in a Restricted WIN H on June 21. Likely to struggle this time.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (30.12) at big odds over 525m at The Meadows. Boxed awkwardly but is worth plenty of thought.

Caught the eye with a fast early split last time and setting up a half a length win at Sandown over 515m in 29.78, making it two wins on end. Top chance to chalk-up the hat-trick.
