ALL THE HARDWAYS (4) is coming along nicely this prep. Finished seventh when fresh from a spell two starts back at Laurel (Dirt) then improved and scored over 1207m at Laurel (Dirt) three weeks ago, getting home by 1.75 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Nicely placed to feature in the finish again. CONFISCATED (6) showed good pace and went on to score by 4.5 lengths last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. DON'T WAIT UP (5) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Laurel (Dirt) over 1207m. Expected to run well again. ONEOFTHEGOODGUYS (2) finished third two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by a nose as favourite over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Finds a suitable race and can build on that last-start success.
