KNOCK WOOD (5) was sent out favourite last time when third over 6f at this track (Dirt). Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Will pay to follow up. RED CHILI PEPPER (7) finished 4.5 lengths away in fifth last start over 6f at this track (Dirt) in a disappointing performance. Definitely worth another chance. BOLD BUCKEYE (1) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at Thistledown (Dirt) two starts back then landed the prize by a nose last time out over 6f at this track (Dirt). Jose A Bracho scored on him last time and retains the ride. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. BLUE NOMORE (6) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at Thistledown (Dirt) two starts back then got the job done by 0.8 lengths as public elect last time out over 1m at this track (Dirt). Finds a suitable race and can build on that last-start success.
