FORMS OF FEAR (4) displayed plenty of early toe and went on to score by 2. 5 lengths when resuming last time out over 6f at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. PATRIOTIC KING (6) was impressive last time over 6f at this track, scoring by 2. 5 lengths. Has a high cruising speed. Best form puts him right in this. CROWN WATERS (5) was in the firing line on the bend and finished second last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 6f at this track, beaten 2. 5 lengths. Ready to go one better. ZOURATA (2) returns from a layoff of five months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 5f at this track. Now under the care of new trainer Terry Gillett. Definite top-three chance.
