Prize Money: -

FORTANACH JOHN (3) is progressing well claiming his 2nd career win latest, scoring by 2.5 lengths (29.97) at this track. Will go close again if runs up to latest. GROVENOR OZZY (6) looks long overdue for a win having finished in the minors at his last five runs, the latest when third (30.52) in a OR at Doncaster. Much better suited here and looks a leading player on best. BONNET LILY (2) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 2.75 lengths (29.44) at Sheffield. In the mix. SANTAS TORNADO (4) won in smart time most recently. Right in the mix.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 270m at Dunstall Park. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.
