OSCAR DOODLE (10) was a winner two runs back and ran well beaten 0.5L second next time. Remains in form and rates a likely contender. PRINCE ACHILLE (7) returned to winning ways when ahead of the main selection at this track last month. Likely to be close between the pair again. SPIRIT OF ASH (12) produced a course and distance win and finished second as favourite at this track recently. Hard to rule out. REFLEX (11) drops back in class and could still have more to offer.
