BURNING LEAVES (5) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. HANDSOME HARRY (1) has put together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on August 1 over 1m when he got home by 15 lengths. Meeting a tougher field but on current form he is capable of testing his rivals. ST ELMO (4) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on April 27 finishing seventh and beaten 18 lengths over 1m at Santa Anita (Dirt). Has switched to the Bart G Hone yard over the break. Backmarker who keeps coming. Watch for a big run. CATHOLIC GUILT (2) didn't do a bad job when third last start over 1m at Fair Meadows. That followed a win at Lone Star Park the start prior. Should be thereabouts.
