DAGGER RANCH (2) is a genuine type with two minor placings from three starts this campaign. Turned in another good performance last time out when second over 1m at this track (Dirt) after he was always up in the leading division. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SPEAKING LOUD (3) again failed to feature last start, finishing seventh and beaten 12 lengths over 1m at this track (Turf). Settles back early but winds up late. Will prove tough to beat. G G GILLEY (4) is yet to break through in seven runs. Finished fourth at his last appearance over 5½f at Pleasanton (Dirt) on December 8. Worth including in this suitable contest. GONZAGA (7) showed good speed and fought on for third over 5½f at Zia Park (Dirt) last time. Hasn't been far away this time in work with two minor placings from three starts. Must be respected.
