GENERAL MATHIS (4) showed good early dash and stalked the pace last start before drawing clear to score by a nose over 6f at Mountaineer Park (Dirt). Has a win and two minor placings at this journey from four starts and is sure to run well. I WANNA WIN (1) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by a nose over 1m at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins from four outings. Top chance again. RELISH THE RIDE (2) turned in a strong run last time when he settled well back before running on hard to be beaten only 0. 2 lengths into third over 1m at this track (Dirt). Form here at the trip is sound with three wins and five minor placings from 12 runs. One of the main contenders. HIDDEN ACCESS (3) did a great job to score by 1. 5 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise.
