DIVINE EMPIRE (2) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish half a length away in second over 1m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. CREEK (5) is still a maiden after 11 runs. Was in the market last time out but didn't live up to market expectations, finishing fourth over 1m at this track (Dirt) after he got a long way back in the run. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. SURF HAPPY (7) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m at this track, beaten 12 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. INTERVAL (1) showed good early dash when resuming last start and held on well to finish 2.75 lengths back in second over 6f at Turfway Park (Synthetic). This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is right in contention.
