SMOKIN' ALONE (4) was in the firing line on the turn and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 6f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. INVALUABLE WILL (2) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with just seven wins from 74 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when sixth over 6f at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Best figures measure up nicely. Makes plenty of appeal. SAMURAI LEGACY (1) returns from a lay-off of ten weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fourth over 5f at this track (Dirt). Sure to make his presence felt. ROCKIBLE (5) was prominent at the corner and finished third last time over 6f at this track (Dirt), beaten 3 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Likely improver with top-three claims again.
