BATTER UP (1) finished fourth two runs back at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by half a length as public elect after being in the firing line on the bend over 1710m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. PACIFIC STANDARD (4) finished 7 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1207m at Tampa Bay Downs five weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. Winning rider B J Williams sticks. Best form puts him right in this. COBBLESTONE BRIDGE (7) has been kept fresh since finishing seventh over 1710m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) five weeks ago. Was a determined winner two starts back. Hard to beat on his form from two starts ago. SIR EXTON (5) is close to a win after a sequence of strong results, the latest when third over 1710m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Shapes as one to consider.
