SILENT WAY (3) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound third over 6f at this track (Dirt) after being in contention on the corner. In the right race and is sure to prove hard to beat. PLAGARIST (1) finished second last start over 1m at this track (Dirt) to make it two minor placings from four runs. Has a solid record at this track, finishing in the top-three two times. Ideally placed to open his account. MEMORY (2) stepped out on his debut over 6½f at this track (Dirt) three-and-a-half weeks ago and finished seventh, beaten 12 lengths. Will take a lot from that last run and is worth following up. AUTHENTIC PATRIOT (6) was in contention on the bend and finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 1m at this track (Dirt), beaten 5 lengths. Will strip fitter this time. Sure to be thereabouts.
