Speed from Linen King off the good draw. LINEN KING has placed at four of last five and looks hard to beat. Narrowly beaten this class latest and gets chance to break through. LITTLE HEATH has been edging towards a win gets chance. Runner up similar class over the border latest. INVINSKI is fitter and can improve sharply. Same goes for KODAKHAN who can improve sharply. SUGGESTED PLAY: Linen King is overdue and gets chance.
