JIMS GEM (1) has a strong record this track and trip with six wins and six placings from 15 starts. Comes off a (29.33) win last time, scoring by a neck in an A2 over 480m at this track. Rates on top and should go close. DANESRATH OAK (6) comes here after a slick win at this track over 480m in 29.06. Has the ability and looks a key chance. KILGRANEY NORTH (2) stalked the lead after a clean break from trap 4 and went on to finish third (29.30) at this track in an A2 over 480m. Can feature again. BAREFOOT ROSCOE (5) was a winner two back then strongly fancied last time but could only manage a second (29.35) at this track.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.5 lengths into second over 480m at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is his race.
