CIRCLE THE MOON (2) turned in a modest performance when second last time out over 4½f at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in contention on the corner. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Likely improver with strong prospects. EL DE CHIREL (8) last appeared two weeks ago over 5½f at Monmouth Park when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Crystal G Pickett stable. Expecting a bright start for the new mentor. MOONSET (6) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just two times from 20 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fifth over 4½f at this track, beaten 8 lengths. The engagement of J D Acosta is a positive move. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run. THE GREAT GAZOO (7) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6½f at this track, beaten 17 lengths into sixth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
