GENERAL ISSUE (14) is fresh from a lay-off of ten months and did hit the frame when last resuming at this track (Dirt) over 7f. In a different yard now. Looks set to run well for the new mentor. NOT SO HOLY (3) is yet to break through after four career starts. Could only manage to finish fourth last time out over 5½f at Ellis Park (Turf) following a minor placing at Ellis Park (Dirt) over 6f the run prior. Cannot be left out of calculations. MISCHIEVOUS M (6) returns after 11 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a tenth over 6f at this track (Dirt). Rates highly and is a chance to break through. SKELLY ROAD (11) stepped out for his debut over 6½f at Keeneland (Dirt) back on October 22 and finished ninth, beaten 17 lengths. Better for that run and can improve sharply.
