SARGENT KOBE (12) produced a good run two starts back to finish third but failed to live up to market expectations last time when out of the placings at this track (Dirt) over the same trip. Has the talent to find the winners' list. DON'TCALLTOOEARLY (7) finds it hard to win with three victories from 39 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 1m1/2f at this track. Must raise the bar but a big run will not surprise. HERO'S MAN (8) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. RIVER CROSROAD RVF (2) is ticking along okay with two runs this time in. Improved last time out when second, beaten 0.8 lengths, at this track (Dirt) over 6½f. Looms as a genuine contender.
