Winner - 8 runners
400y
Going:
Surface: D
ASTRONOMICAL 123 (8) progressed nicely last time out to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1f180yards at this track after being in contention on the corner. Steps up a level but he is capable of running a bold race. NATIONALIST (4) is racing well. Scored at this track (Dirt) in a then finished second, beaten 1. 3 lengths, over 2½f at this track (Dirt) at the latest appearance four weeks ago. Can return to winning form. FIREY EAGLE (7) scored when resuming two starts ago then drifted back and finished 2. 75 lengths from the winner in fifth last start over 1f180yards at this track (Dirt). Among the leading players on his best figures. FOURSTREAKINGEAGLE (3) was beaten for early speed and safely held to the line when fifth over 1f130yards at this track (Dirt) six weeks ago. Should be poised just off the lead. Solid claims on best form.
