CHARLESTON (2) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 2 lengths, over 1m at this track (Dirt). DOCTOR WU (3) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 6 lengths when seventh in a 1m contest at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. BELLA FUTURE (5) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 2. 5 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 6f. Worth including. AYE AYE SIR (4) resumes from a lay-off of six-and-a-half months and is having his first outing under new trainer Johanna Urieta. Finished sixth at this track (Dirt) over 6f at the opening run last time in work.
