FRENCH VALLEY (1) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 1.3 lengths at this track (Dirt). Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Expecting a bold showing. MAYOR HUMDINGER (8) has strung together a couple of wins at this course, the latest on July 5 over 1f130yards when he scored by 0.1 lengths. Meeting a tougher field but on current form he is right in contention. EL DICTATOR (3) scored last start at this track (Dirt) to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Should be prominent from the outset. Capable of testing this field. BROTHER RAY (6) recorded a strong on-pace win here last time by 0.3 lengths over 1f130yards. Has a strong association with Cruz Mendez who has been in the saddle for his last two wins. Must be respected.
