MAKEIT THEA (4) boasts a strong record this journey here with four wins and two minors from 12 tries. Below best last time at this track (16.50) in a D4, finishing a 4.5 lengths fourth. Rates a leading player. DRUMCROW MAVERIK (5) found some support last start but struggled into fourth (16.85), beaten 4.5 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Key player if finds best. CHOICES EXPRESS (2) followed a moderate fourth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish sixth, beaten 5 lengths, in a D4 at this track over 270m (16.83). Worth another chance this line-up. BLUE ROBIN (3) picked up a cheque last time and is in the mix again.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished last on March 18 over 270m at this track behind Chadwell Pest beaten 5 lengths (16.83) in a D4. Can bounce back. One of the main chances.
