LITTLE STEVEN (1) was in the firing line on the bend and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1m1/4f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. SKIP THE LINE (6) changes rider since being well held last time in sixth over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt) on August 31. Key runner on his best form. VINO COURAGIO (7) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when third over 1m1/4f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. NEW YEAR SURPRISE (4) has filled a minor placing at his last three outings, most recently when third over 1m at this track (Turf). Well placed and will be thereabouts again.
