TAHOE RUN (1) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a second over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when beaten one length. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. VOLODYMYR Z (6) went fast early over 1106m at this track (Dirt) last time and defied all challengers to score by 2.25 lengths. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. GRAYHOP (3) is fitter for two runs back from a spell, progressing nicely last time to finish third, beaten 1.1 lengths, at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Among the winning hopes. ADIOS KID (7) was beaten 6 lengths into fifth in a 1207m contest at this track last time out. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
