IFSBUTSANDMAYBES (5) boasts a strong record this journey here with two wins and two minors from five tries. In the money last time at this track (29.80) in an A3, finishing a 8 length third. Looks suited here and can measure up. CHOCTAW WILLOW (4) missed the frame two runs back then won at her latest appearance by 2.5 lengths at this track over 500m (29.39). Hard to fault winning form and expected to feature despite the tougher grade. HEADFORD MADAME (6) was out of the placings last time but shapes well for this on her swift win a few runs back, getting around this track over 500m in 29.40. Smart winner three back and looks a key chance on that form. VELVET PABLO (1) warrants respect following a recent placing over this course and distance.

Finished sixth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 500m in an A3 at this track. Heading in the right direction and well placed to fill another top-three spot.

Not seen at best last start when he finished last in an A3 on November 15 over 500m at this track behind Clonkil Smokey beaten 10 lengths (30.05). Others have better credentials.

Solid performance to score in an A4 by 2.5 len at this track over 500m (29.39). Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when third and beaten 8 lengths (29.80) in an A3 over 500m at this track. Well placed and can bounce back.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 500m at this track (29.96) in an A3. Boasts good form here at the journey with two wins and two minor placings from six tries. Can feature with the right run.
