ONE TRUTH (7) started at 4/1 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 16 lengths at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) over 5f. This is a nice drop in grade so he is sure to be prominent. DE'S CASTLE (4) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing third and beaten only one length over 4½f at this track (Dirt) after being prominent at the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. SETTLEMENT DATE (3) made a strong late bid only to just miss when when resuming last start over 4½f at this track (Dirt). Will take a lot from that hitout. In the right race and is sure to prove hard to beat. TALKING TEDDY (6) was in contention on the bend and finished second last start over 4½f at this track (Dirt), beaten 3.5 lengths. Will be rock-hard fit. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing.
