MAXIMILLIONS DREAM (4) proved too strong last start and scored by 0. 8 lengths over 4½f at this track (Dirt). Has a decent record at this track with two wins and four minor placings from 11 starts. Should park just off the speed. Best figures should see him run well. CAJUN JOE (3) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 4½f at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. IMPERIAL KING (6) finished fourth last time out over 4½f at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Has a solid record here over this distance, winning on three occasions from 17 outings. Serious contender. HARDLY EVER BETTER (2) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at this track (Dirt) over 4½f. Well placed and can play a prominent role.
