OH LOVER BOY (1) returned to winning form as favourite last start, scoring by 10 lengths over this journey at this track (Dirt). Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Top chance. WEEKEND RETREAT (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m at this track, beaten 12 lengths into sixth. Likely improver with strong prospects. BE AN EDDIE (3) was impressive last time at this track (Dirt), scoring by 2.25 lengths over this trip. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and two minor placings from five starts. Strong claims on best figures. STRIKE PLATE (7) was beaten 8 lengths into fourth in a 6f contest at this track four weeks ago. Better than recent efforts suggest.
