PAYNTED BLUE (4) returns from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished fourth at Colonial Downs (Turf) over 5½f when when resuming last time in work. Nicely placed and expected to go well. DECISIVE PRIDE (5) ran a strong second over 5f at this track (Synthetic) two runs back then was below his best last time over 5½f when fifth, beaten 6 lengths. Coming back in trip suits so should prove tough to beat. FRISSON (1) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 15 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when seventh over 5½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. CUT'EM LOOSE (3) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when ninth over 5½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Should be thereabouts.
