BALLYNEALE BULL (3) was in trouble close to the inside last time over 300m at this track and failed to finish. Suited here and worth another try. CHICKS A THIEF (1) turned in a moderate effort last time when fifth at this track over 300m behind Snacks (18.71) in a Grade 5. Cannot be taken lightly. MIRACLE JACK (7) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at this track over 300m behind Snacks (18.91) in a Grade 5. Has ability and can measure up. RICARDO GOT ZIP (2) was unplaced here last start but gets his chance to atone.

Showing promise but missed the frame last start when sixth at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when third (18.15) over 300m at this track. Tough draw to overcome but is among the better hopes.
