EL BEATLE (1) finished 2.75 lengths away in fourth last time out over 5f at Tamworth after being in contention on the bend two-and-a-half weeks ago as 2/7 favourite. Steps up in journey. Should park just off the speed. Best figures should see him run well. TONKATSU GODDESS (4) ran a strong race when resuming then raced on the speed last time and faded out of it when fifth over 6f at Kembla Grange. Fitter and deserves another chance. EXCEEDAQA (9) finished second when resuming at this track then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fourth at Newcastle over 6f when beaten 3 lengths. Has the pace to be thereabouts early. Shapes well and is among the main hopes. LISTINS LASS (10) is a three-start maiden who returned last time and finished fourth at Wyong over 5½f, beaten 2.25 lengths. Backmarker who gets home hard. Sure to be competitive.
