RAY OF SUNSHINE (10) finished fourth over this distance, beaten 5 lengths, at his latest outing. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring five times from nine starts. Well placed in this easier race. Expected to be in the finish. HITTHEROADJAK (5) has switched yards since scoring by 0.8 lengths at Colonial Downs over 1609m on August 15. Expecting a big run. HOLD MY BOURBON (7) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Best figures measure up nicely. Can do a lot better. YULETIDE GALLOP (9) showed good early speed and led throughout to score by a nose last start over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Solid prospects again.
