STRAIT OF GEORGIA (1) returned from a lay-off last start with a strong win by 2.25 lengths over 1m3f at this track. FLORIDA GATOR (3) was in the firing line on the bend and ran a better race last start when he worked home well to finish a close third over 6½f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. COUNTERACT (2) was in contention on the turn and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1m1f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has the talent to take care of this field. BUTTONWOOD TREE (5) started at 3/1 last time but could only manage fourth, beaten 6 lengths, at this track over 1m3f. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Should give backers a sight.
