THIRSTY VISION (1) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 0.8 lengths over 1408m at this track (Dirt) after being in contention on the corner. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. MONGOLIAN CHAMP (4) doesn't win very often but ran a nice race last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt), finishing second and beaten 1.75 lengths when he did his best work late after being in the firing line on the bend. Faces an easier assignment so he is ready to return to the winners' list. ARROMAX (3) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when sixth over 1408m at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) after he got a long way back. Will strip fitter and is expected to do much better. FACENDA (2) was comfortably accounted for when eighth last time out over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis, beaten 27 lengths, after a win at Mahoning Valley at the previous outing. Should be thereabouts.
