TICKETS PLEASE (3) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (25.16) from Box 1 at this track. Has a strong record from box 3, including three wins. Top chance in this line up. SIR TICK (2) made light work of the tricky draw with a fast early sectional but gathered in and had to settle for the minors, finishing second (22.87) at this track over 400m. Leading chance. OCCULENT (6) boasts strong form at this course and distance having won two times from four starts. Was out of the placings last time (30.42) at The Gardens in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Looks a key chance on best figures. SOLO FERNANDO (5) was unplaced when well supported last time last time - can make amends.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 4 length third (25.16) over 450m at this track. Has won three races from this draw. Expected to feature.
