BALLYMAC HARLEM (5) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind Harlequin Flewin (29.24) in an A5. Took the lead and boxed on but run over. Expected to feature in the finish again. UNKNOWN CAPTAIN (3) followed a minor placing two runs ago with a plain effort last time to finish sixth, beaten 2 lengths, in an A4 at this track over 476m (29.70). Expected to do much better this easier level. SOAP BOX TAILS (6) finished well back at this track last time when a 5 length sixth (29.12) but back to the course now of her latest success. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Key runner who gets her chance to atone.

Finished sixth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 476m in an A5 at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.

Last start finished last in an A4 on November 8 over 476m at this track behind Ballycleary Bono beaten 6 lengths (29.28). Expect improvement on the latest effort. Great chance to atone.

Showed a hot pace early and stuck on well despite missing the frame, finishing sixth this track in 29.70. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Turned in a better effort over 476m at this track last start, finishing third behind Harlequin Flewin in an A5. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a sensational early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish sixth (29.12) at this track over 476m. Solid claims this line-up.
