SALINE RIVER (2) scored at Lone Star Park (Turf) last time out with one length to spare over this journey. Has started four times at this distance and is yet to have his colours lowered. Can go on with it. INDIAN EMPIRE (5) is racing well, scoring by a nose in a at this track (Dirt) then finishing a respectable fourth last time over 1m at this track (Turf) when not too far away. Bailey Weatherly stays aboard. Sure to play a big role. RIP THORN (3) scored by 0.3 lengths over this distance at this track (Turf) last time out. Has a terrific record here with five wins and three placings from eight starts. Capable of running a big race. CAPTAIN CREED (7) had been steadily working his way into form, culminating in a win last time out by 1.5 lengths over 1m on dirt at this track. Switches to a turf track for the first time. No reason he can't convert the good form to this surface.
