ELUSIVE D'ORO (1) was well fancied on the back of a couple of minor placings but could only manage fifth last start over 7f at this track (Dirt). Worth noting Samy Camacho is the change of rider. Good record at this journey with two wins and 12 minor placings from 18 starts and is sure to run well. AL AMEEQ (4) missed the placings two runs back then settled well back last start when 25 lengths away in ninth over 1m1/4f at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. MY MAN WOODY (5) missed the placings two runs back then got a long way back last start when 28 lengths away in eighth over 6½f at this track. Finds a more suitable contest and can find winning form. HAPPY INSTEAD (9) finished fourth over 6f at Finger Lakes (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on October 14. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
