Group 3 placegetter PROVERB (7) finished a 8 length seventh when resuming last start over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Generally goes well with that run under the belt. Can return to winning form. CONCRETE GLORY (8) was well fancied when resuming last start and proved too strong, scoring by 1.3 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). BELTS 'N BROOKS (3) was unwanted in betting last time but scored by a nose over 1m at this track (Dirt). Record at this journey is impressive with four wins and four placings from 10 runs and is expected to be competitive. LIGHTNING TONES (6) is back at the races for the first time since July 28. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 7f at this track. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with two minor placings. Has switched to the Carlos Narvaez yard. Definite top-three chance.
