GOLDEN SAND (4) made a promising debut over 5½f at this track (Dirt) last start, finishing second and beaten half a length. Will benefit from that experience so he is worth following up. HARD FREEZE (6) faced the starter for the first time and was well supported but could only manage fourth last start at this track (Dirt) over 5f, beaten 6 lengths. Big chance with race experience now on board. EL PAPACITO (2) is yet to break through after five starts. Placed in a then last time out was fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 5½f at this track (Turf). Well placed here and among the winning hopes. PENCIL ME IN (7) stepped out for the first time last start and was just fair in finishing sixth at this track (Dirt) over 5f, beaten 8 lengths. Expected to do more.
