WALK AWAY JOE (1) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 10 lengths, over 1609m at Laurel (Dirt) after he settled well back. Should be peaking now and looks set to find best form. BOOK RUNNER (7) has two minor placings from three starts this time in work, the latest as favourite over 1710m at this track (Dirt). He looks a top challenger again. AMITY ROAD (6) is going well with two minor placings from three starts this time in work. Was always up in the leading division and finished 5 lengths from the winner in second last time out over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. BATTER UP BUD (4) was beaten 5 lengths into sixth in a 1673m contest at this track at his latest appearance. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
