THRUST (8) finished sixth when resuming two runs back then progressed nicely last time out after being in the firing line on the corner to score by 2 lengths as public elect over 4f124yards at this track (Dirt). Meets some better types this time but another win beckons. RUNNING TIGER (3) showed little early speed and was always well back last start when fourth, beaten 5 lengths, over this journey at this track (Dirt). Must raise the bar but this looks well within his grasp. SMARTY NOSE (6) comes here off a break of nine weeks. Scored over 5f at Los Alamitos to launch the last campaign. Sure to make his presence felt. SPEED OF THE NILE (1) finished second last start over 4½f at this track (Dirt), beaten 1.3 lengths. Should be peaking. Has started five times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish.
