GOOD BYE CHARLIE (5) failed to run a strong 5f last start after a close second over 4½f at this track (Dirt) the run prior. Looks better placed over this shorter trip so should be in the finish. ANNIE'S BOY (6) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 6f at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. POVERTY BAY (3) was in contention on the turn and finished third last time over 5½f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 2 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. COMPANY'S DREAM (1) is a five-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Howard F Gibson stable. Finished off last campaign with a sixth at Emerald Downs (Dirt) six months ago. Not seen at the trials but has a very good when resuming record. Has to be respected.
