SIR STERLING (4) performed above expectations last time over 6f at Listed level at this track (Dirt), getting the prize by half a length. Strong chance again. THEALLIGATORHUNTER (6) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by one length over 5f at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from four runs. Sure to go well again. EYE ON RY (10) went fast early over 1m1/2f at Hawthorne (Turf) last time and dug deep to score by 3 lengths. Can cross from an awkward gate. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. JOSE PATIO (5) returned from a lay-off six weeks ago when he was in contention on the turn before being beaten 2 lengths into fourth over 1m at this track. Strips fitter and should be thereabouts.
