Race Tip

TWIST 'N TWIRL (11) has been in the market at his last couple of runs but failed to threaten, the latest effort a modest seventh at Laurel (Dirt) over 7f. Can improve sharply. BIG SMILE (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 12 lengths when fourth in a 6½f contest at this track five weeks ago. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Perfectly placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. PRINCE OF PORTLAND (2) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fifth at this track (Dirt) over 6½f. Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time. DICEY GREY (5) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 4½f at this track, beaten 9 lengths into fourth. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
