STANFORD NORTH (7) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 13 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 6½f at this track. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. GROOVIN' IS BAK (3) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 12 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 6½f at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run. RICK'S DANCER (5) led throughout last start to score an effortless 2.25 lengths win over 6½f at this track. One of the main contenders. BARBERRY BANDIT (8) wound up strongly last time out to finish 0.9 lengths adrift in third over 6½f at this track. Top-three prospects.
