UNSPEAKABLE (2) was strongly fancied last time on the back of a win two back but could only manage second (29.79) at this track. Has a solid record from this box including three wins and a minor placing. Can measure up this time. BALLYGUR MICHAEL (4) has missed the frame at his last couple but wasn't beaten far three back when second (29.64) at this track in an A5. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. FAMOUS DUKE (6) won again in an impressive display after tracking the lead to make it back to back wins, scoring at this track over 480m (29.78). In great form and can continue his winning ways. SLANEYSIDE MAX (3) was strongly fancied last time but finished third (29.86), beaten 1.1 lengths. Overdue and is among the main hopes.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 480m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Prefer in something easier.
