EL TAMALERO (11) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0. 8 lengths from the winner in second over 5½f at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. ALPHADINI (1) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start when he worked home well but found a couple better over 5½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Looks well placed so expect another big run. PASTERO (6) improved last time out, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 6f at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. WEEK'S STRONG (12) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 6½f at this track 12 weeks ago. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Sure to be thereabouts.
