PORTRUSH BOB (6) jumped from this trap and scored an A11 win at this track over 400m latest (24.56). Has a very consistent record off this same draw, including four and seven places from 22 starts. Key chance again here. GLORIANA (3) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (25.14) at this track behind Hollywood Icon in an A9. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Bold showing expected. DISTANT DIANA (5) showed good early burn but run over late to finish 5th at this track in A9 company. Solid record here at the distance winning nine races. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. THREAD OF HOPE (2) is an improver in the mix despite missing out at this track when making debut.

Hit the ground running last time and never headed, leading throughout to score an impressive 2.25 lengths win (24.56) at this track. Should be prominent.
