SMILENSAYCHEESE (1) opened this prep last start with a third, beaten 3 lengths, over 6½f at this track. Leading player. DARK VECTOR (5) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 14 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 6f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish. DIALBOLICO (8) made progress last time out, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 6f at this track after being prominent at the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. BACKTRACK (4) returns from a layoff of nine weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 6f at Turfway Park. Now under the care of new trainer Richard E Dutrow. Definite top-three chance.
