SECRET JOURNEY (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1m at this track, beaten 2. 25 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. CAESAREA (5) is yet to break through in five runs. Finished fifth at his last appearance over 6f at this track (Dirt) on December 4. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. LORD BARANOF (2) was always well out of his ground when 18 lengths from the winner in tenth over 1m1/2f at Turfway Park last start, a less impressive effort than his when resuming sixth at Turfway Park the run before. Finds the right race this time and can turn things around. MITOCHONDRIA (3) made his debut last start and was just fair in finishing sixth at this track (Dirt) over 6f, beaten 9 lengths. Can improve and is a top-three chance.
