WHISKEYTHENWINE (2) resumes from a lay-off of five months. Could only manage to finish fourth at the latest run over 6½f at Emerald Downs (Dirt). Opened last prep with a minor placing at Emerald Downs over 5½f. Looks the one to beat. PROWLING CAT (5) returned last time with a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 6f after being in the firing line on the corner. Perfectly placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. GRINNELL (8) is a 10-start maiden who finished sixth at his most recent appearance over 6f at this track (Dirt). Expected to feature in the finish this time. BOUNDLESS OPTIMIST (3) is a three-start maiden who finished fourth, beaten 7 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at this track (Dirt). Definite top-three hope with plenty of improvement to come.
