BLACKTECA (5) has strung together a couple of wins at this course, the latest on July 23 over 5½f when he scored by 2 lengths. Likely to be in the finish again. Lay-off last start when third over 6f in listed grade at this track, beaten 1.4 lengths. Has a solid record at the third run in so he is among the leading chances. NORTHVALE ROAD (6) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 6f at this track after being in contention all the way. Will be handy in running despite the tricky draw. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. FALSELY ACCUSED (3) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0.3 lengths from the winner in second over 6f at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish.
