JAC'S DOE MAKER (8) is a talented gelding who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 47 lengths behind Crown The Buckeye over 1m1/2f at Listed level at this track (Dirt). Form this campaign has been strong with two wins to his credit. Sure to go very well. DUNN'S RIVER (12) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 8 lengths over 6f in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Looks well placed so expect another big run. ULTIMATE DESTINATN (3) is a progressive two-year-old gelding who hasn't raced since finishing third over 6f in stakes class at Belterra Park (Dirt) on September 19 which was the only run of that prep. Has scored when resuming from a lay-off before. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Should be involved in the finish. VALIANT STRIKE (13) was in the firing line on the turn and finished second last start over 6f at this track (Dirt), beaten 8 lengths. Meets a stronger field but he is capable of running a bold race.
