SOLWAY ERNIE (5) was midfield throughout and finished there last time when 4th (29.42) at this track. Key runner on best form.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished 4th on December 31 over 480m at this track behind Howay The Lasses beaten 2.5 lengths (29.42) in an A3. Had found the frame two times on end before the latest effort. Can atone.
