POP COYER (6) has registered three minor placings from three runs this campaign. Continued the trend last time out when runner-up over 6f at this track (Dirt) after he was always up in the leading division. Must be included on the strength of that form. STARS N STONES (1) won his maiden three starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when third over 6f in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Keiber J Coa has been in the money at the last three rides. Expecting a bold showing. RHUM PRESSURE (8) was in contention on the turn and finished second last start over 5½f at this track (Dirt), beaten 5 lengths. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BOOM BOOM THUNDER (7) was too good for a maiden field last start over 5½f at this track (Dirt), scoring by a nose. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Tougher assignment this time but is one of the main contenders.
