DUNDIE (14) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 4 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). Should be close to the speed despite the draw. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is capable of running a bold race. SMART STRIKER (1) finished 3. 5 lengths from the winner in fifth on turf at this track two starts back. Missed the frame in another run on turf last time at Gulfstream Park over 1m1/2f when 3 lengths adrift in fifth. Sure to be thereabouts. CROOKED DREAMS (8) turned in a fine effort to score by 4 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. AMERICAN UNITY (10) ran a better race last start, finishing 3 lengths away in fourth over 1m1/2f at this track. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.
