HOMESTRAIT (4) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at Beverley over 1000m. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Will give a great sight. STAR MARIAN (6) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1100m at Chester. Will be very hard to beat with that run under the belt. DANDY'S ROCKET (1) turned in a much better run at his second appearance last time out when 6 lengths from the winner in fourth over 1000m at Leicester. Fitter and looks one of the better chances. THE LITTLE BEAR (7) debuted with a third, beaten 7 lengths, over 1000m at Wolverhampton at her only appearance to date. Best figures stack-up nicely.
