STRIVE FOR STRIDE (4) hasn’t been far away since a maiden win three runs back, the latest effort a third over 6½f at this track (Dirt) on June 13. Great chance to break through. CALLISTO'S BRIGADE (2) did a good job last time, finishing in the money when second over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Expected to be in the finish. CALYPSO JOHN (7) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish third last time out over 4½f at this track (Dirt). The addition of blinkers should see a bold run. ASTRAYAL (1) was beaten 4 lengths into fifth in a 4½f contest at this track at his latest appearance. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
