IRON MAN IRA (4) raced on the speed from the outset last start and finished third, beaten 4 lengths, over 1m at this track (Dirt). Has the talent to get the prize. FREEDSDALE (10) is a talented gelding who tackled a tougher race at his last run on June 16 and finished eighth behind The Big Torpedo over 6f at Listed level at this track (Turf). This looks a more suitable assignment. B FIFTY TWO (2) is a four-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the David P Duggan yard. Hasn't raced since finishing fourth at Ellis Park (Dirt) nine months ago. Not seen at the trials but looks well placed. Among the leading chances. WAJDA (5) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by 4 lengths over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to keep the ball rolling.
