BALKI BARTOKOMOUS (4) is close to a win after a string of recent placings, the latest when third over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Genuine performer so this is his chance to grab that elusive victory. HE'S MY BOY (2) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 16 starts. Did a good job last start to finish second over 1207m at this track, beaten 1.3 lengths. Placed to advantage and can make his presence felt. HIDDEN HEART (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1106m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fifth. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. DONALD'S NATION (3) was beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth in a 1207m contest at this track at his latest appearance. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
