AVOIDANCE (3) sat on the pace before tiring to be beaten 2.25 lengths into fifth when resuming over 1000m at Ascot last time out. Usually performs well with that run under his belt. Has a high cruising speed. Expecting a bold showing. GIFT OF THE HEART (2) was successful last start over 1500m at this track, getting home by 1.5 lengths to make it three wins on the bounce. Winning rider Amy Jo Hayes retains the mount. Likely to be in the finish again. BLUE LINE (5) was well in commission last start over 1000m at this track when third, beaten 4 lengths. Worth another chance. SOME SORT (4) returned from a spell a week-and-a-half ago when he was beaten 12 lengths into eighth over 1000m at Ascot. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
