ETHNIC SOUL (1) is racing well and has registered five minor placings in a row, last time out finishing second over 1m1/2f at this track after being in contention all the way. Likely improver with strong prospects. MISTER HOLDEN (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at this track, beaten 6 lengths into seventh. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is likely to play a big role. THEFRONTIERSMAN (5) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing fourth and beaten only 1.75 lengths over 1m1/2f at this track. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners. SHAMATEUR (6) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1m1/2f at this track. Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time.
