LINKS VIPER (2) goes very well this course and distance starting 29 times for 10 wins and 14 minors. Comes off a (24.12) win last time, scoring by 5 lengths in an A1 over 400m at this track. Has the ability and should feature. BACON BURRGER (1) took advantage of a low draw last start with an all-the-way win (24.36) at this track in a OR over 400m. Boasts a strong record from this draw with 19 wins and 13 minor placings from 45 starts. Should be in this for a long way.

ESSEX SHOWTIME (3) has top-three claims while fresh from a nine months break.

Solid effort after taking an early lead to score in an A1 by 5 len at this track over 400m (24.12). Deserved winner last time after finishing in the money two on end prior to that. Can make it two on the trot.
