BELLA FUTURE (5) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when third over 6f at this track, beaten 3. 5 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. BIG PRANKSTER (2) was a narrow winner by a nose at this track (Dirt) in a then second at this track (Dirt) last time. Down in the weights on last run. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and two minor placings from six starts. Expected to feature. THANKS FRANK (6) was in contention on the turn and finished second last time over 6f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten one length. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to take this out. ROUNDBALL ROCK (1) was beaten 5 lengths into fourth over 6f at this track at his latest appearance. Well placed to make amends.
