RUN FOR RUM (4) goes very well at the course with three wins and a placing from five starts. Hit the frame latest (29.38) when second at this track in an A2. Rates a leading player. SNUGGIE BENNY (2) goes very well this course and distance starting 39 times for 13 wins and 12 minors. Placed last time (29.55) at this track in an A2, finishing third and beaten 5.5 lengths. Looks well placed here and among the chances. AIRFIELD BEST (5) finished well back at this track last time when a 27 length sixth (31.01) but recorded second best time of the card when winning four back. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Has ability and is one of the better chances. HELLO OPPY (3) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Can't recommend him in this.

Sound effort to finish third last start over 480m at this track (29.55) in an A2. Boasts good form here at the journey with 13 wins and 12 minor placings from 39 tries. Key player and should go well.
