VIGNERON (2) is back after a break of four months. At the last run before the layoff he finished fifth over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt). Has ability and sure to prove tough to beat. JOE G TWENTYTHREE (6) is a three-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 7 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at this track (Dirt). Can come on from that run and looks a serious contender. MENCKE (4) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 8 lengths when fourth over 6f at this track three weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. TICKET TO PARADISE (1) sat on the pace last start until tiring to finish fifth, beaten 9 lengths, over 6f at this circuit. Can sneak into the finish.
