DA SMOKE (4) is a talented gelding who tackled a tougher race at his last run on August 25 and finished eighth behind He's Not Talking over 6½f at Listed level at Emerald Downs (Dirt). Expected to be in the finish with the blinkers removed. ROAD Set Weights ITCHER (5) is a four-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent outing over 7½f at this track (Turf). Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. BOTTLE CAPS (7) is a maiden who has filled a minor placing six times in 10 starts. Safely held when resuming last start over 5½f at this track (Dirt), finishing fourth and beaten 13 lengths. Should be poised just off the lead. One of the main contenders. SPENARD (6) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when third at this track (Dirt) over 5½f. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Should give backers a sight.
