TEMPUS (8) kept coming only to just miss when first-up last start over 1609m at this track (Synthetic). Will take a lot from that hitout. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again. DRIFTWOOD (6) is back after a break of 11 weeks. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1710m at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf. Now under the care of new trainer Julie A Pappada. Should be hard to stop. GOOSE HUNTER (4) built on a nice third when fresh from a spell two starts back at this track (Synthetic) with success as public elect over 1609m at this track (Synthetic) two weeks ago, getting home by 0.3 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. PARTNER TOURS (3) was prominent at the bend and finished third last time over 1609m at this track (Synthetic) when resuming from a spell, beaten 1.5 lengths. Will trim down second-up. In the right race and is worth serious consideration.
