Prophet, Inafix and Old Fashioned to match motors but there will be other pressure. A lot of thee struggling fore their best but BUMPS LAST GRIND (1) looms vowed well placed here fresh. Resuming in easier grade and placed 2/2 while fresh. Has the big claim and looks an excellent chance. HIS LORDSHIP (3) was disappointing this grade latest. Leading rider replaced claimer and with good speed is well worth another chance. Nicely placed to atone. INAFIX (5) wasn't far away in tougher latest and is a course and distance winner. Top chance. CLAIRWOOD ROSE (2) turned in a mediocre effort last time out but this suits. Leading rider aboard and gets chance to atone.
