SO GRATEFUL (3) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished second at Southwell All Weather two starts back then landed the prize by a nose as public elect last time out over 1000m at Newcastle All Weather. Has the class to make it two on the bounce. THE COLA BRASIL (5) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing fourth and beaten only 2.25 lengths over 1400m at Chelmsford. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. ALAFDHAL (2) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when sixth, beaten 4.5 lengths, at Chelmsford over 1000m. Finds a more suitable contest and can turn things around. NEVERNAY (6) was beaten 3 lengths into fourth in a 1400m contest at this track at his latest appearance. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
