'On a long losing run; well weighted; better effort last time (1m); two wins at this trip.'

'Battling for first win; beaten 3l or less in nine straight C&D runs; down another 2lb.'

'Dual C&D winner; suspicion is that the handicapper may just have his measure at present.'

'Half-brother to a New Zealand Group 1 hero who has won two local trials; should go well.'

'Dual 7f scorer; not obviously well handicapped though ran quite well back at 6f last time.'

'Inconsistent but has a couple of pieces of recent C&D form that give him a fair shout.'

'Has just one bit of decent form (this C&D) from six career tries; top jockey now booked.'

'Poor local form so far; needs to be transformed by the application of blinkers.'

'Was running well late last year but seems to have gone off the boil in recent months.'

'Newcomer who has struggled in six local trial races so makes little appeal.'

'Close third at massive odds on his career debut but failed to build on that since'

'Hard to fancy onlthe back of five finishes outside the top nine.'
