BECKETT'S BEST (4) has three wins and one placing from five starts this campaign. Scored last start by a nose at this track over 6½f after being up on the pace all the way. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HORATIO (5) was rewarded with his maiden success last start, scoring by 8 lengths over 6½f at this track. Winning rider Silvino Morales stays aboard and he cannot be underestimated. OUR BLOKE (2) raced on the speed when resuming last start and battled on well but found one better over 6½f at this track. Has found the frame at all four visits to this track, including a win. Should be thereabouts. WHEN IN MEXICO (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6½f at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths into fourth. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
