ZENITH EFENDI (2) jumped from the inside and boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten 1.75 lengths (29.30) behind Jacktavern Zoe at this track. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Key chance in this line up. ROMEO BRO (4) was safely held in tougher company last start after settling off pace at this track, but prior to that won by 2 lengths at this track (29.08) beating Clerical Error in an A4 on August 18. Key runner on best form. FABULOUS KIRA (3) comes here following a swift fifth over 480m at this track in 28.89. Harder here but expected to measure up. BALROBUCK TOM (1) is worth consideration after filling a hole last start.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 480m at this track. The recent effort suggests he is a genuine hope.

Delivered a much better performance last start when second over 480m at this track in an A3. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Has a fast 29.03 PB at this course and distance. Hard to beat.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by 2 lengths in 29.08. Last start finished 5th in a OR on August 27 over 480m at this track behind Drombeg Angel beaten 9 lengths (29.51). Well worth another chance.
