ESCONDIDO GOLD (8) is back in class after finishing 6 lengths away in tenth over 1f130yards in stakes class at this track (Dirt) three weeks ago. Ideally placed to return to form. GV WILD CAT (4) won narrowly by 0.8 lengths two runs back at this track (Dirt) then missed the frame last time at this track (Dirt). Will appreciate the drop in the weights. Best form puts her right in this. LOT T DOT T (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1.75 lengths when tenth over 1f80yards at this track three weeks ago after being prominent at the turn. Has the ability to find the winners' list. JOLIE LAIDE (10) recorded her first win last start over 1f80yards at Fair Meadows (Dirt), getting home by 0.3 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Harder this time but still one to consider.
