SOUTHERN SLANG (6) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 1.75 lengths, over 4f124yards at this track (Dirt). Well placed and expected to feature. KEDAR (5) resumes after a break of seven months. Looking to emulate his debut win over 4f124yards at this track to kick off last prep. Likely to take beating. SMARTY NOSE (1) got a long way back when 7 lengths from the winner in sixth over 6f at Santa Anita last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Santa Anita the run before. Has a good record at this course and distance, including four wins. Finds a suitable assignment and can turn things around. RALLY CAT (3) lines up on the back of a 5.5 lengths fourth over 4f124yards at this track. Has a solid record here including six wins and 10 minor placings from 32 outings. One of the main contenders.
