TROTSKY (3) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 22 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.2 lengths. Likely contender with strong prospects. TAVERN TIME (2) started favourite last time but found one better over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Will appreciate the extra ground. Expected to go very well. REAL MEN VIOLIN (8) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fourth and only 0.7 lengths from the winner at the end of 1609m after being prominent at the bend. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. PARTY WITH SMARTY (4) bounced back last start and landed the prize by 0.8 lengths over 1308m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Looks well placed so expect another big run.
