FUNTASTIC VOW (2) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing fifth over 1106m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Rates highly in this line up and can improve. DOWNTOWN CONNECTOR (5) battled on well to hold third last start over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten one length. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. PROVE WORTHY (1) knuckled down strongly to get within half a length of the winner in second last start over 1609m at this track. Has a win and six minor placings at this journey from 10 starts and has to be included. LAVENDER EARL (4) produced another moderate effort last start when 7 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1609m at this track. No surprise to see him in contention.
