CAPTAIN CARDO (2) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish second last time out over 7f at this track (Dirt). Form over this course and distance is solid with a win and four minor placings from seven starts. Sure to run well. GALATIANS (1) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 18 lengths starting at 11/2. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. ALBERTANO (4) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on August 26 finishing ninth and beaten 17 lengths over 1m1/2f at Timonium (Dirt). Definite top-three chance. BRASSTOWN (5) failed to live up to market expectations last start when out of the placings over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Meets some better types this time but this looks well within his grasp.
