SURPRISE (1) held on well to finish third last start over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt), beaten one length when fresh from a lay-off as favourite. Taking on a better line-up this time but she is good enough to play a major role. CALAMITY (7) raced on the speed when resuming last start and battled on well but found one better over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). Has a win and five minor placings at this journey from nine starts and is a key runner. MISS AUTHENTIC (5) knuckled down strongly to get within one length of the winner in third last start over 1m1/2f at Colonial Downs. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. One to consider. DAWN AFTER DAWN (6) got off the mark with an impressive maiden win last time out over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). One of the likely contenders despite the step up in grade.
