INGA BUDDY (2) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing sixth (26.56) at this track. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and four minor placings to his credit. Can discover winning form. PAW TIKA (1) hasn't been far away, finishing in the money twice in a row including last time in a Grade 5 at this track over 400m. Can hit the frame this time. WESTSIDE WIZARD (6) goes very well here starting six times for three wins and two minors. Was out of placings last time (23.54) at Horsham in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. IF HE COULD (4) is right in the mix.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (26.56) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 7 length sixth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and four places from seven starts. Has ability and looks a key chance.
