NIGHTINGALE CREW (3) has an excellent record over this course and distance having never missed the placings in seven starts, including six wins. Placed last time (15.96) at Monmore in a OR, finishing third and beaten 5 lengths. Appeals as a leading chance in this. ESSEX GUNNER (4) broke from this trap and finished in the placings when a one length second in fast time (16.47) in a D1 at Great Yarmouth. Expecting another bold showing. BRETONS GIRL (1) was game in defeat off a low draw at the latest outing, finishing second and beaten a neck (24.06) behind Piemans Goalie at this track. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Leading player again. AERO LUTHER (5) cannot be left out despite racing over this journey for the first time.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at Towcester then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in a D1 at Great Yarmouth over 277m (16.47). The one to beat.

Yet to break through after two starts but hasn't been too far away. Solid last time over 277m at Central Park where he settled off pace and boxed on to finish fourth (16.71). Likely to be much improved on the experience.
