BETTOR TRIP NICK (6) failed to run a strong 6½f last start after a close third over 5f at this track (Dirt) the run prior. Goes well at this shorter journey so rates among the leading chances. HELLO HOT ROD (1) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when ninth, beaten 36 lengths, over 1m at this track (Dirt). Has the ability to put the recent poor run behind him. STORM BAYOU (4) has switched yards since finishing fifth four weeks ago over 6½f at this track. Can make his presence felt. PUDDING (5) is back after a break of three months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 5½f at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino. Boasts a when resuming record of three wins and four placings from nine starts. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.
