RHUM SAINT ESPRIT (3) was comfortably accounted for when seventh last time out over 1006m at this track, beaten 10 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Enjoys a drop in grade so he can recapture winning form. BIG NICKEL (4) scored narrowly over 1408m at this track (Dirt) last time out with today's jockey Colby J Hernandez in the irons. Gets some weight relief this time so another bold showing is expected. GAME PORT (10) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1207m at this track (Dirt) after being prominent from the outset. Wide draw and will need a good steer from Juan P Vargas. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. MUD ON MY BOOTS (5) finished fifth last time out over 1408m at this track, beaten 9 lengths. Definite chance.
