CHANCE ENCOUNTER (3) is yet to break through in five runs but has been thereabouts. Placed in a then was 0. 8 lengths away in fourth over 1m at this track last time. Has a strong finish. Best figures stack up and looks well placed to get off the mark. MERCENARY (10) missed the placings on debut two starts back then ran a better race and finished 1. 3 lengths away in fourth last time out over 6f at this track. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. PERFECT IMPACT (13) is a four-start maiden who is close to a win following two recent minor placings, the latest when second over 7f at this track. Craig Zackey stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Should be involved in the finish. CHARLIE BUCKET (1) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 7f at this track, beaten 2. 75 lengths. Will strip fitter this time. Nicely placed to run well again.
