Rattled home nicely into 3rd last start around here in 42.14s over 715m and will appreciate a good draw. Expected to be flashing home. Watching with interest.

Outpaced some runners late when 4th last start here. Brooke Ennis has been training plenty of winners recently. Very competitive this campaign. Solid chance.

Couldn't keep the pace going when 2nd last run at The Meadows in 42.76s over 730m. Should muster plenty of early toe. In good shape this preparation. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.
