BALLYGUR MANTLE (1) hit the frame with a narrow third two runs back then claimed an A4 by 1.3 lengths at this track over 462m (28.47) last time. Goes up a notch here but strong win latest and can continue the winning form. SWIFT ILLINOIS (4) is better than last start when fifth (28.55) in an A3 at this track over 462m. Key runner who gets her chance to atone. BALLYGLOSS MIKE (5) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when second (28.51) at this track. Bold showing expected. BIT VIEW BELLA (3) turned in a solid run fresh when finishing in the placings at this track in an A3 (28.34). Will strip fitter for the run. Top chance in this line up.
