BOURBON BOSS (1) finished sixth two runs back at Penn National (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner over 6f at Penn National (Dirt). Going up a level this time but he is up to the challenge. BOSS' DIALIN IN (4) was prominent from the outset when fifth over 5½f at this track (Dirt) last time out. Has a good record here at this journey. Further improvement in store. FLIPPING FISH (5) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 6f at this track (Dirt) after being in contention all the way. Likely improver with strong prospects. HONOR THAT DUDE (7) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7½f at Delta Downs, beaten 31 lengths. Strips fitter and should be thereabouts.
