HEY RIVER (1) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1m at Gulfstream Park, beaten 9 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. CATCHING STARS (3) resumes from a lay-off of five months after closing off last campaign with three consecutive minor placings. Proving a good combination with Jorge F Hernandez with three straight placings. Best form puts him right in this. ALL FRUITS RIPE (6) is on debut. By Bourbon Courage and comes from the Valrie Smith stable. Bold showing expected. AVES MAKIN' WAVES (2) finished second last time out over 6f at this track (Dirt), making it four career minor placings. Has a solid record here with two top-three finishes to his name. Worth including.
