STROXX (5) was in contention on the turn and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1000m at Musselburgh after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. JAMIE'S CHOICE (4) was last at the races when she finished second over 1000m at Redcar on September 17. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. MEWS HOUSE (9) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1000m at Newcastle All Weather after being in the firing line on the turn. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge. USTATH (8) was beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth over 1200m at Wolverhampton last time out. Finds a nice race and can make amends.
