GRAND JOKER (5) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 5f at this track after being in contention on the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. TROOPS (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/4f at this track, beaten 11 lengths into sixth. Finds an easier assignment and can turn things around. G SPEEDY (2) turned in a fine effort to score by 1. 75 lengths at this course and distance last start in a far better run. Likely to be there at the finish again. TRICKY TIGER (11) won his maiden three starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when third over 5f at this track (Synthetic). Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Should give backers a sight.
