WINE CANDY (2) was well fancied on the back of a couple of minor placings but could only manage sixth last start over 6f at this track (Dirt). Worth noting S Golibrzuch is the change of rider. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Leading contender. BALL OF FIRE (3) is racing well, scoring in a at this track (Dirt) before finishing 0. 3 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). Has a strong record here, including two wins. Will be hard to stop. PERMIAN BASIN (6) won her maiden four starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at her last two runs, most recently when third over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). Yet to miss the top three here in four starts. Sure to be competitive. MR HOOLIGAN (5) was a winner over 6f at this track (Dirt) last time out, dropping out early before coming home with a powerful run to score by 0. 8 lengths. In form and will be running on hard again.
