SHAZZA LOVE (5) broke gear and raced wide at Melton last start so did well to be beaten only 4.3m into fourth. Had recorded a series of top-two finishes prior including a win at this circuit and distance last month. Big chance. SCOOTER LOU (6) has had no luck so far this campaign as he has had to work in both outings. Fitter for those hitouts and won the only time he attempted this circuit and distance so could show his best. SENNA STORM (4) is looming as a threat after a good effort last start, coming from the back row for a 1.6m second at Melton. BREATHE EASY (8) has put together a series of solid efforts and can play a role with some luck from the second line.
