DAREDEVIL DOUG (1) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on two consecutive occasions, before finishing fifth last time out over 1m at this track. Should camp just off the leaders. Best figures should see him run well. CHALON'S FIRST (5) travelled in a rearwards position and didn't fire over 5½f at this track (Dirt) last time out when in the market. That followed a good third the run before. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Finds a nice race and can bounce back. ADMIRAL NELSON (7) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 5½f at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. GOLDEN GOAL (3) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten a neck, over 6f at this track (Dirt). Among the chances.
