BETTER BREAKOUT (8) settled well back then made a little ground and finished 4 lengths away in fifth last time out over 6½f at Newcastle two weeks ago. Steps up in distance. The one to beat in this line up. THE BEAST (1) wasn't disgraced in city class last time when finishing sixth at Canterbury. Meets easier opposition this time. Well placed so expecting a strong run. CREDITOR (15) is ticking along okay with two runs this time in. Improved last time out when fourth, beaten 4 lengths, at this track over 1m. Among the winning hopes. BLEND OF THREE (2) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished 5.5 lengths from the winner in ninth over 7½f at Newcastle. Solid top-three chance on his best figures.
