GORTKELLY PIXIE (4) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (29.53) in an A5 at this track. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to his name from six starts. Ready to return to form. STEPHENS GHOST (3) turned in a good run last time, finishing in the placings (29.50) at this track in an A5. Lines up from trap 3 for the first time. Expected to be in the finish again. BORNA PEDRO (1) jumped from the same trap last time when a 2 length second (29.19) at this track over 480m. Key chance on best form. BALLYVOR GORDON (6) placed last time at this track and distance - worth some thought.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 480m at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.

Resumed last time out with a solid third over 480m at this track in an A5 (29.50). Improved on the run and should prove tough to beat.

Finished in the money latest and looks close to a win. Settling well back last time over 480m at this track but wound up late to finish third (29.91). Sure to improve on the experience. Holds top-three claims.
