POLITICAL TWIST (9) is a handy type who resumes after a break of five-and-a-half months. At his last appearance he finished seventh over 1f180yards in Group 1 grade at Los Alamitos Qh (Dirt), beaten 2. 5 lengths. Unbeaten in two starts when fresh. Luis Martinez who has scored on him six times retains the mount. Should be in the finish. SAN FERNANDO CREEK (5) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 1f180yards at Remington Park after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. SIGNIFICANT ONE (7) raced on the speed from the outset and went to score by 2 lengths last time over 1½f at Remington Park (Dirt). Is going well this campaign, recording a win and a minor placing from three starts. Expected to be competitive. THE DIESEL TRAIN (6) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1½f at Sunland Park, beaten 4. 5 lengths. Strips fitter and should be thereabouts.
