OPTIMAL (2) is a 15-start maiden who returned last time and finished fourth at this track over 6f43yards, beaten 0.6 lengths. Plenty of scope for improvement and is a great chance to break through. BOSS HOLIDAY (3) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at Bunbury, beaten 4 lengths. Strips fitter and can figure prominently. THE MIGHTY BUTCH (1) resumed a week-and-a-half ago over 6f43yards at this track and was only beaten 1.1 lengths into sixth after being prominent at the corner. Strips fitter and can find the winner's circle. ARAFISIO (7) finished third last time over 6f43yards at this track when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 0.6 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
