STATE OF ATTACK (1) hit the frame with a 3 length second on turf at MOUNTAINEER PARK Turf two starts back. Disappointed last time though, again on the turf, at MOUNTAINEER PARK Turf over 1609m when 6 lengths from the winner in fourth. Capable of sharp improvement. Can atone here. CLASSIC ALPHIE (6) finished 6 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1207m at Louisiana Downs two-and-a-half weeks ago as $3.3 favourite. Steps up in distance today. Solid winning chance. BRIARCLIFF (4) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1609m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. REVEREND JACK (3) turned in an eye-catching run over 1106m at this track (Dirt) last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish second. Has a solid record at this circuit. Deserves respect.
