FINDING WAYS (2) changes rider since being well held last time in fifth over 6½f at this track on July 13. Deserves another chance. STAR ENTRY (5) didn't do a bad job when third last start over 6½f at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. STANFORD BAY (4) turned in a fine effort to score by 2.25 lengths at this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to cope. FLORIDA GATOR (3) returns from a layoff of three-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 6f at this track. Now under the care of new trainer Craig Macpherson. Has found the right race and is worth including.
