GOLD CRUSHER (2) is resuming from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months and having his first run for the Robertino Diodoro yard. Was in the placings when when resuming from a lay-off last campaign at Emerald Downs (Dirt) over 5½f. Expecting a seamless transition. INTO WISHING (4) gave a bold display over this course and distance when resuming last start, racing on the speed and boxing on well to finish second and beaten 0.3 lengths. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. FIRST LINE (1) settled well back then picked up fairly well in the straight and finished 18 lengths away in seventh last time out over 6f at this track two weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Can play a big role. DREWPOWER (3) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing eighth at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) over 1m1/2f. Ideally placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake.
