COLONEL COOPER (1) improved last start to finish second over 5½f at this track after being in contention on the corner. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. PROFESSOR NICK (2) was in the money last time at this track (Dirt) over 5½f when favourite after being in the firing line on the turn. Will prove tough to beat. DRILL'S BOY (3) made progress last start to finish second over 5½f at this track after being in contention on the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. JOHN FITZGERALD (9) was prominent from the outset on debut last start and held on well for third, beaten 5 lengths, over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Open to plenty of improvement.
