MY OLD FRIEND (3) placed last time (28.94) at this track in an A1, finishing second and beaten 4 lengths. Expected to be in the finish. DEECEE PA (2) ran below best last time finishing fourth (29.13) over 480m at this track in an AA0. Should be about the money. GOLDMINE DIAMOND (4) comes off a speedy 29.10 placing at Kilkenny over 480m. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. TARSNA NICO (6) boasts a solid strike-rate over this track and distance.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at Clonmel. May find this a bit too tough.

Last start finished 4th on June 20 over 480m at this track behind Goldmine Ranger beaten 7 lengths (29.13) in an AA0. Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only second over 480m at this track in 28.94. Racing well and can find winning form again.

Followed a minor placing at Kilkenny two runs ago with a sound second, beaten 5.5 lengths, last start in an A0 at Kilkenny over 480m (29.10). Decent recent form so demands respect.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by one length in 28.78. Last start finished last on July 18 over 503m at Curraheen Park behind Sure Exile beaten 12 lengths (30.61) in an A1. Can't recommend her in this.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by one length over 480m at Clonmel in a handy 29.24, beating Burgess Bonnie. Expected to run well again.
