JUST ALBERT (3) recorded a strong maiden win over 6f at this track last time, getting there by 2 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Drawn well close to the inside and a bold showing is expected. DEBATING (2) proved too strong last start and scored by a neck over 6½f at this track. Boasts four wins here at his home track. Jarrod Todd who has scored on him four times retains the mount. Leading contender. ASTERN MAGIC (8) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fifth over 6f at this track after being in contention on the turn. Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time. MAX ROCK (7) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1. 75 lengths from the winner in third over 6f at this track. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
