NOGUCHI (4) made progress last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1673m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. PURE REALIZATION (5) returns from a spell of three months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished fourth at Parx (Dirt) over 1673m when first-up last time in work. One of the better hopes despite the layoff. AMERICAN HALITE (1) finished second as favourite last time out over 1673m at this track (Dirt), making it five minor placings from five starts this time in work. Not far off a win and he has solid claims. FAST AMENDMENT (6) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1673m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Nicely placed to take this out.
