BEACH PARTY BINGO (6) is struggling to break through but has been around the mark lately, last start finishing fourth over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Top contender. POIEMA (7) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7f at this track, beaten 23 lengths. Has a fair record when second up, including two top-three finishes. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. ROYALLY BLUE (5) finished 1.3 lengths away from the winner in third when resuming last start at this track (Synthetic) over 5f Has a very good record over this journey with two wins from four starts. Has to be included. NANA'S CORN MUFFIN (8) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 5½f at this track (Synthetic), beaten 4 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
