AULA (3) last appeared five-and-a-half weeks ago over 1m1f at Aqueduct when he finished fifth. This is his first run for the Chris Englehart stable. Rates highly and expected to go well. ASAP RESTORATION (5) was well in the market last time and made it two minor placings from as many runs this prep when 3 lengths away in third over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt). Good chance to break through. TIZ LUCKY (1) was expected to do more last start when out of the placings over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt), beaten 14 lengths. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. RHYMES LIKE DIMES (4) was never in contention when resuming last start over 6f at Listed level at this track (Dirt), finishing seventh and beaten 10 lengths. Well placed in this easier race. Solid claims on his best form.
