SOUTHSCAPE (7) finds it hard to win with just one success from 14 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 1m at this track. Placed to advantage and can make his presence felt. CAPTIVATING STAR (2) doesn't win out of turn but ran a nice race last time out over 1m at this track (Turf), finishing fourth and beaten 1. 4 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. SLICK AND FAST (15) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fourth. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. TURF MONSTER (9) settled well back last time out then found the line strongly to finish 2. 25 lengths away in fifth over 1m at this track (Turf). Sure to be winding up late.
