JUDY CHOP (1) was safely held when fourth last time out over 6f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. HIGHTAIL FOX (6) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing second over 6f at this track (Synthetic) when he was always up in the leading division. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. PARTY AT THE BEACH (4) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 6f at this track (Synthetic) after he produced a huge finish. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. PAUL'S GUITAR (3) was out of the money two runs back when fresh from a lay-off then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Laurel, beaten 10 lengths into seventh. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
