IN THE ARCH (1) was safely held when third last time out over 7f at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in contention on the turn.That followed a win at this track at the previous outing.Yet to miss the frame in four starts over this course and distance.Finds a suitable race and can rediscover winning form.GERARD (7) started at 11/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 5f after being in contention on the corner.Best figures measure up nicely.Sure to run well.GOLDEN PALACE (3) opened this prep with a win two runs ago.Less impressive last time out when fourth over 5f at this track, beaten 5 lengths.Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.FIRE Set Weights ORD (10) is having his first run since winning by 0.8 lengths seven weeks ago over 6½f at this track.Has transferred to the Eric R Nelson stable over the break.
