STRAND ROAD (9) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing sixth over 7f at Laurel (Dirt). Can improve and is a leading player on best figures. IRISH TENOR (4) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then was beaten 3 lengths when fourth over 5½f at this track two weeks ago. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. FOURTY FOUR (7) finished 19 lengths adrift in seventh last time at this track (Dirt) in a disappointing performance. Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. CHECKING BOXES (8) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when eighth over 6f at this track (Dirt). Likely improver who should be about the money.
