PAY ZONE (3) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 4 lengths over 7f at Charles Town (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with three wins from eight outings. Leading player again. JOHN'S ROCK (6) showed good early muster and fought on to finish third last start over 1m at this track (Dirt). Will enjoy a drop in class so he is likely to play a big role. BUREAU (1) built on a nice third two starts back at Fairmount Park (Dirt) with a win over 6f at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) a week-and-a-half ago, getting home by 0. 8 lengths. Steps up a level but he is good enough to score again. MORE LOVE (2) could only manage seventh on synthetic in a at Presque Isle Downs then was again unplaced on turf over 5f at Tampa Bay Downs more recently. Solid top-three prospects.
