SOUND OF VICTORY (3) comes here off a break of 11 weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1609m at Sam Houston Park. Rates highly and should take some beating. SPONGE BATH (8) was in the money two starts back at Hawthorne Turf but was unable to repeat the effort last time when sixth, beaten 12 lengths, at this track (Dirt) over 1207m after being in the firing line on the turn. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to turn things around. PATCH O'BRIEN (9) turned things around last start and scored by 5 lengths after being in contention on the turn as public elect over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot repeat the dose. ROUSSETTE (2) ran well below his best last time over 1673m at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths into fourth at $2.10. Can figure prominently.
