HUMBLE JOE (3) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with just three wins from 42 starts. Was again denied last start when he found a couple better over 1m1/4f at this track. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. GOLDEN PURCHASE (9) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when fourth, beaten 9 lengths, over 7f at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to feature in the finish. BOB JOHN RAY (15) was a determined winner in a then drifted back last time and finished 5 lengths away in eighth over 1m at Meadowlands (Turf). Among the leading players. NIXON JOY (12) did a great job to score by 4 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Likely to be there at the finish again.
