STRAND ROAD (4) recorded a gutsy maiden victory last time out over 6f at Aqueduct (Dirt), scoring by one length. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he should be in the finish. MR BOGAN (3) has strung together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on December 17 over 1m when he scored by 0.3 lengths. Looks well placed so expect another big run. SKINNY JOEY (1) is having his first run since winning by 1.3 lengths a week ago over 1m1/4f at this track. Has transferred to the Hugo O Padilla stable over the break. Well-placed and is among the chances. COJELO PA TI (6) comes here following a win over 5½f at this track a month ago, getting home by 1.3 lengths. Major contender.
