GREEN OKRA (2) on the synthetic for the first time today at his second run back from a spell. Kicked off the campaign with a nice second at this track over 1200m, beaten 2.25 lengths. Big chance to take this out. GRAND ALLEGRO (1) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 1200m at this track when he was in the firing line all the way. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. GLOBAL DRUMBEAT (5) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 1200m at this track after being in contention on the turn. Likely improver with winning claims. BROOKSIDER (3) is a 12-start maiden who has been in the money three times, Could only manage fifth last time out over 1200m at this track. Goes well here with three top-three finishes to his credit. Must be respected.
