SMOKEMONTHECLIFF (3) was safely held when second last time out over 6f at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths after being in contention on the turn. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Finds a suitable race and can return to winning ways. ON PURPOSE (4) was going well before a lay-off with two straight minor placings. Proven when resuming performer back from a break of five months. One of the leading chances. STEPUP (6) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was always well out of her ground over 6f at this track, beaten 10 lengths into sixth. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. DREWY (2) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt) over 6f, finishing fourth and beaten 4.5 lengths. Should be poised just off the lead. Deserves respect on best figures.
