ASTHECOLDWINDBLOWS (3) turned in a fine effort to score by 1. 75 lengths at this track and distance last start in a far better run. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention. YOCKEY'S DRIVETHRU (4) improved last time out, finishing 2. 75 lengths from the winner in third when he worked home well at the end of 6f at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. BIG NICKEL (5) was comfortably accounted for when second last time out over 6f at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in contention on the turn. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. STAR ROCK STAR (2) returned from a lay-off six weeks ago when he was beaten 13 lengths into sixth over 6f at this track. Strips fitter and can play a big role.
