DUG ANOTHER HOLE (4) drew wide last time and was safely held when 1. 5 lengths away in fifth over this course and distance. Draws an outside gate again. Brad Parnham has scored on him four times and is back in the saddle. Expecting a bold showing. ALL GRUNT (5) was ridden quietly then picked up fairly well in the straight and finished 4 lengths away in eighth last time out over 6f at this track when resuming from a lay-off as 11/8 favourite. Steps up in journey. Back-marker who keeps coming. Will be tough to hold out. RALLY THE TROOPS (10) was given time to settle from an outside draw last time then wound up strongly in the straight for an eye-catching third over 7f at this track. Good record at this journey with four wins and three minor placings from nine starts and shapes as one to consider. STREET BAND (8) has not won for a long while. Last raced on January 17 when beaten 4 lengths into seventh at this track over 7f. Must raise the bar but a win is not out of the question.
