DEFENSE WINS (4) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 3.5 lengths over 6½f at this track (Dirt). That continued the solid form this campaign, with five wins and two minor placings from 11 starts. Top chance again. STRENGTH OF AUTISM (5) made progress last time out, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 5½f at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Won't find this as tough so he is all set to build on that latest effort. SMILING GOODBYE (6) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at this track (Dirt) over 5½f. Finds a suitable assignment and can turn things around. BUGLER (7) was beaten 6 lengths into seventh over 5½f at this track seven weeks ago. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
