OTTER MISCHIEF (6) really dug deep to get the prize by 10 lengths three runs back at this track (Dirt) before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Leading contender. J D FACTOR (1) finished 10 lengths from the winner in fifth last time out at Laurel (Dirt) over 1m1/2f. Has a very good record over this journey with two wins from four starts. Should be poised just off the lead. Best form puts him right in this. AWESOME FLAY (7) did well to score at this track two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when in contention on the corner before finishing second over 1m1/4f at this track, beaten 2. 75 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. DUKE OF GLOUCESTER (4) fought on for third last start over 1m at this track (Dirt), beaten 10 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
