CODE RUNNER (1) returns from a break of three months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a third over 1m1/2f at Turf Paradise. Ideally placed to score while fresh. SIXWILLBERICH (4) is back at the races for the first time since October 30. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 1m at Churchill Downs. Yet to win when resuming but generally runs well with two minor placings from four tries. Should be hard to stop. When resuming over 5f at Fairmount Park (Dirt), beaten 9 lengths. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. One to consider. HIGHLY PERFECT (3) finished fourth over 1m1/4f at Fairmount Park (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on October 28. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
