SHMOOV MOOVA (3) last appeared on December 6 when a good fourth over 7f at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Sure to make his presence felt. BLACK ORA (1) turned in a nice run when resuming at this track then wasn't too far away last time over 6f at this track, finishing sixth and beaten 2. 75 lengths. Has a good record at this course and distance, including three wins. Has the talent to return to form. CASTLE ROAD (5) is a distance specialist who was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5f at this track, beaten 1. 3 lengths into sixth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. CHARINO (2) returns after a lay-off of three-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 5f at this track. Yet to win when resuming but generally runs well with two minor placings from three tries. Worth plenty of thought.
