ASKARI (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Has the talent to produce another positive result. FIRST OF HIS NAME (7) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 9 lengths, over 1m1/2f at this track (Synthetic) after he was in contention on the corner. Should be peaking now and is among the leading chances. FINN MCSORLEY (6) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 2 lengths over 1m1/2f at this track (Synthetic). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. GERALDRAYDAPLEGRAY (1) is having his first run since winning by 4 lengths a month ago over 6f at this track. Has transferred to the Sergio Donjuan stable over the break.
