TWIRLY (8) finished 10 lengths from the winner in sixth on turf at Saratoga two starts back. Missed the frame in another run on turf last time at this track over 1m1/2f when 4. 5 lengths adrift in fifth. Looks a top chance switching back to dirt. SPIRIT OF ESTHER (1) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1m at this track, beaten 7 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. HANDLE ON YOU (6) settled well back last start and never threatened when 8 lengths from the winner in fourth over 6f at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to turn things around. THAT'STHEFACTJACK (5) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 7f at Saratoga after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a nice race and can play a big role again.
