MOSSEND FOX (3) turned in a solid run last start over 261m at this track finishing 5th and beaten only 2 lengths (16.01). Goes very well here at the trip finding the frame in each of three starts. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. COPPICE SAPHIRE (2) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (28.45) at Newcastle. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Hard to beat again. LINKS JESTER (1) shapes well after a sharp run last time, finishing third in a OR at Doncaster in 17.15. Has the ability and can measure up. TRAVEL SAFE (4) clocked a slick 26.11 despite finishing fourth last start. Can measure up here.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found a couple better over 275m in a OR at Doncaster. Racing well enough to play a big role.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when second and beaten 5 lengths (28.45) in a OR2 over 480m at Newcastle. Well placed and a great chance to atone.

In the money at Star Pelaw at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 435m. No easier here and faces a tough task.
