ESCARPA (6) drifted well back last start before storming home to score by 1. 3 lengths over 5f152yards at this track. Worth following up. ALTERMATUM (8) knuckled down strongly to get within 1. 5 lengths of the winner in third last start over 6½f at Sandown-Hillside when resuming after a break. Proving a good combination with Harry Coffey with seven straight placings. Fitter and ready to win. SEA POEM (3) tackled city class last start when fifth over 6½f at Sandown-Hillside. Change of rider to Blake Shinn who has an excellent strike rate when in the saddle, including two wins. Has claims on her best figures. NORMANDY LASS (7) showed good early dash and led throughout to score by 1. 75 lengths last time out over 5¾f at this track. Patrick Moloney who has two wins when partnering stays on. Worth including in calculations.
