SMASH (6) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 2. 5 lengths over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). Looks well placed so expect another big run. WASHINGTON'S UNION (4) built on a nice second two starts back at this track (Dirt) with a win as public elect over 1m at this track (Dirt) three weeks ago, getting home by 0. 8 lengths. Alexander Chavez scored on him last time and retains the ride. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot score again. ZIMBA WARRIOR (1) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt) after he travelled towards the rear of the field. Has a strong record at the third run in and is ready to show what he can do. MAGICAL MONARCH (2) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when seventh and beaten 18 lengths over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with top-three prospects.
