UNIFIED REPORT (5) tackled the over 6f at this track last time out when fresh from a lay-off and was beaten 8 lengths into 13th by Mangum. Will appreciate this easier race. TWIRLING ROSES (7) finished out of the money two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 4 lengths when fourth over 5½f at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. BEEALEA (2) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on November 4 finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths over 1m at Fairmount Park (Dirt). One to consider. CUSTOM BOBBY'S (8) last appeared two months ago over 6f at this track when he finished eighth. This is his first run for the Sturges J Ducoing stable.
