LI'L HAIL MARY (5) was given time to settle from an outside draw when resuming last time then wound up strongly in the straight for an eye-catching third over 7f32yards at this track. Will drift back but is expected to be in the finish again. FIGHTING FLOYD (4) was sent out at 25/1 last time but ran above expectations and won over 7f32yards at this track. Rates highly on latest effort and can go on with it. ALPINE AFFAIR (1) recorded a strong on-speed win last time by a long neck over this journey at this track. Has a solid record here at the distance with two wins and two placings from five tries. One to consider. SUSHI EXPRESS (3) finished 3 lengths behind the winner in fifth over 7f32yards at this track last start after lifting strongly to score in a. Should park just off the speed despite the draw. Deserves respect on best figures.
