HAVE A CIGAR (5) registered a strong win at Thistledown two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when prominent at the bend before finishing fifth over 1106m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. CANNON (6) resumed last time out and finished second over 1673m at Belterra Park, beaten 2.25 lengths. Ideally placed to score. WISE WORDS (7) finished second two runs back at Thistledown (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 1.5 lengths over 1609m at Thistledown (Dirt). C Keiser scored on him last time and retains the ride. Looks well placed so expect another big run. KEEN SURGE (1) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was beaten 8 lengths into sixth over 1673m at Presque Isle Downs. Strips fitter and can turn things around.
