SENDERO (2) finished sixth two runs back at Colonial Downs (Turf) then improved last time out to score by half a length as public elect after being prominent at the corner over 1m1f at Colonial Downs (Turf). Faces an easier assignment so he is likely to play a big role. EVEN THE WIND (8) went forward last start over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf) and held on well for second, beaten 1.3 lengths. Will be handy in transit despite the tricky draw. Perfectly placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. CAUGHT OFF GUARD (1) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 10 lengths when sixth in a 1m contest at Canterbury Park eight days ago. Nicely placed to get the prize. NATHANIEL'S HOPE (3) was comfortably accounted for when third last time out over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 6 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
