PARTY FOUL (8) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time when he was in the firing line all the way over 6f at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. BACK BAYOU (3) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Not as effective last time out when third over 6½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. NORTHWIND (2) was safely held when second last time out over 6½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Yet to miss the placings in two starts over this course and distance. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. STORM CATCHER (1) should be at his peak after three runs this prep, the latest a second over 4f at this track (Dirt) two weeks ago. Don't underestimate.
