VINO DOMINUS (6) last appeared two-and-a-half weeks ago over 1609m at Ellis Park when he finished eighth. This is his first run for the Preciado Ernesto Padilla stable. Rates highly and expected to go well. THOMAS BENJAMIN (2) got well back over 1408m at this track (Dirt) last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 23 lengths away in sixth. Finds an easier assignment and can take this out. TIZTIMONIAL (8) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish third last time out over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Solid top-three prospects. CENTAUR CENTRAL (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1710m at this track, beaten 9 lengths into fourth. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
