ESSENTIAL TIME (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when fourth in a 1609m contest at this track three weeks ago. Finds a suitable assignment and can turn things around. PROPS (10) is in great form, lifting strongly to score last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) to make it two in succession. Hard to knock and should go well again. STONINGTON (6) finds it hard to win with two victories from 22 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fifth over 1408m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. WORK ZONE (1) finished 1.3 lengths away in third when resuming from a break on a dirt track at this track over 1207m. Followed up with an unplaced effort on turf at Remington Park Turf over 1509m. Better than latest and is a must include back on dirt.
