DIRECT APPEAL (4) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track (Dirt), finishing third and only 1.75 lengths from the winner at the end of 7f. Anthony Radcliffe gets the best out of this three-year-old gelding. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. GHOSTLY LEO (9) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track (Dirt), finishing second and only 0.3 lengths from the winner at the end of 6½f after being prominent at the bend. Likely improver with strong prospects. JAZMAN CAN (2) was safely held when third last start over 7f at this track, beaten 4 lengths. That followed a good win on debut at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. LOVE IS WICKED (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when sixth over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Likely improver who should be about the mark.
