VILLIAN (8) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 2. 5 lengths over 1m1/2f in Listed grade at Thistledown (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with four wins and two minor placings from seven outings. Leading player again. SHADOWY (1) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish third last time out over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Form at this track is solid. Bold showing expected. CASUAL ATTIRE (10) finished fourth last time out over 1m1/2f at Thistledown, beaten 5. 5 lengths. Significant rider change. Definite player. MOMMA K'S BOY (6) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 9 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). Jose A Bracho who has five wins when partnering stays on. Don't underestimate.
