TONY SMALL (2) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when second over 1m1/4f at this track (Synthetic) when he was prominent throughout. Likely improver with strong prospects. SUMMERFEST (3) was not far away last time out, finishing third over 6f at this track (Synthetic) when he was up on the pace all the way. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Among the winning hopes. ROUND OF APPLAUSE (1) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1m1/4f at this track (Synthetic). Has a good record at this course and distance, including two wins. Placed to advantage and can make amends. MARSAC (5) was easily accounted for when sixth last start over 1m1/4f at this track, beaten 12 lengths after a good when resuming win at this track. Best figures measure up so deserves another chance.
