BRASSTOWN (6) was well fancied last start over 1m1f at this track (Dirt) when fifth, beaten 28 lengths. Has a strong record here at this journey with two wins from six starts. Likely to feature. Group 1 placegetter SHIVAREE (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 7f at this track, beaten 5 lengths into fifth. Has the talent to find the winners' list. CLOUD MUSIC (5) finished 12th two runs back at Parx (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 3 lengths as favourite after being in the firing line on the corner over 1m1/4f at Penn National (Dirt). Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to figure in the finish. WALK AWAY JOE (9) finished second last time over 1m1/2f at Charles Town (Dirt), beaten 5 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Capable of another bold effort.
