Prize Money: $1,492

NEWINN OSCAR (1) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 2nd at Nottingham over 500m. Won at his only start from this draw. Rates highly and will give a great sight. GUN SLINGER (2) shapes well for this after a lightning last start success, getting around Towcester over 500m in 28.96. Harder here but expected to feature again. DA MIGHTY MAN (6) is having his first start around this circuit. Scored (28.32) last time out at Monmore after jumping from this draw. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with three wins from three starts. One of the prime contenders. UNION REBEL (5) hit the frame latest (26.74) when third at Oxford in a OR1. Has already won six times from this trap.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 500m at Nottingham. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.

Charged out of the boxes last time with a scorching early split and led all the way for a 3 length win (28.96) at Towcester. Has hit winning form and can measure up again.

Good effort to score last start by a nose over 450m at Oxford in 26.43, beating Rioja Oisin. Strongly fancied last time and lived right up to expectations. Stick with him.

Comments

Form slipped last start when he finished 4th over 480m at Monmore beaten 7 lengths (28.72) behind Ballymac Blanco in a OR on August 2. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

In sparkling form lately having won three races on the trot. Well fancied last start won by 1.5 lengths at Monmore (28.32) beating Inca Lewie in a OR3 on July 26. Yet to be beaten in three starts out of this trap. Sure to go well.
