CAPE VALE : D.Nicholls......A.T.Nicholls:- Three year colt by Cape Cross, half brother to high class sprinter Moss Vale, and other winners including a juvenile successful over 8f. Dam credited with unplaced form only. This colt the winner of his only two races in 2007, both 6f. sprints at Class 4 level, with improved form levels recorded in 2008 without success, alsthough his latest effort a shade below par when three and three quarters of a length ninth of twenty to Spanish Bounty in Class 2 Newmarket 6f. handicap July 9th. on Good/Soft ground. WILL BE WELL SUITED BY THE FORECAST FAST GROUND TODAY. Negatives:;- Looks high enough in the weights. Distance index = 8f. (Turf.). Stable form = 32% win and placed. (Last 14 days.).

LIGHT HEARTED : J.Noseda......S.Sanders:- Green Desert filly, a full sister to high class 6/7f. performer Byron, also half sister to numerous other winners over distances ranging from 5-10f.

Classified Stakes when three and three quarters of a length fourth of eight to Lesson In Humility at odds of 100/30. This run below par and not seen on the racecourse since. DIFFICULT TO FAULT THIS PEDIGREE AND CERTAINLY SHE IS MUCH BETTER THAN HER FORM TO DATE. FAVOURABLY HANDICAPPED. Negatives:- Absence. Distance index = 8f. (Turf.). Stable form = 45% win and placed. (Last 14 days.).

NOTE:- ALL commented runners positive for the forecast Good/Firm ground.
