Punt well worth another chance after fluffing his lines last time

FLUFF THE PUNT made a real mess of the start when fancied for a similar contest last week but will be suited by the slightly more middle draw he has in Oxford's A1 over 450m at 4.26 and is well with another chance.

Terry Nevin's dog possesses blistering early speed and anything approaching a level break could well see him in command before the opening turn.

A maiden open winner in 26.94sec last month, he has only had six races at the track and still has scope for considerable improvement.

The other afternoon venue is Suffolk Downs where Jason Ray's Swift Jordana looks well in dropped to S4 company over 548m at 4.56. 

There is double Friday Irish action with Liffeyside Cloda (12.38) fancied for a first Mullingar success, while Jimmy Anderson's Strike It Dolly (8.03) can make it two wins in her last three at Lifford.

Harlow has a morning/evening double-header with Phil Ward's Kerabellec Nell (12.46) and Paul Clarke's Voltage Honey (7.24) the respective main fancies.
