SLAM DUNK SERMON (2) finished 24 lengths adrift in tenth last time at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) in a disappointing performance. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. JACK VAN BERG (6) returned from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was in the firing line on the corner before being beaten 3.5 lengths into fourth over 5½f at this track. Has a fair record when second up, including three top-three finishes. Fitter and sure to run well. D' YANK (1) finished sixth two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 6f at this track, beaten only 0.3 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Tackling a more suitable race so he is one of the main contenders. Best efforts measure up so capable of another big run.
