SMARTY BE GOOD (4) finished ninth on debut two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 6f at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. HA HA GLORIA (12) met with solid support when resuming last start over 5f at Hawthorne (Turf) when second, beaten 4.5 lengths. Fitter and expected to be prominent. TAPITARA (5) resumes from a lay-off of seven months and is having her first outing under new trainer Tony Rengstorf. Finished ninth at Kentucky (Turf) over 6½f at the opening run last time in work. Worth plenty of thought on an each-way basis. RUSSIAN TOTHE WIRE (1) finished second when resuming at Turf Paradise then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fourth at this track (Dirt) over 6f when beaten 5 lengths. Backmarker who gets home hard. Can feature with the right run.
