CINDER BLOCK (2) has filled a minor placing at both runs to date, the latest when beaten 2.25 lengths into second over 1m1/2f at Pimlico (Turf). Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Best form puts him right in this. FLAMENCO STAR (1) is a two-start maiden who was unplaced on debut then improved to finish second last time over 1m at Delaware Park (Turf), beaten 0.1 lengths. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Looks close to a win. NO FOOLIN MO (3) finished out of the money two starts back then he was always well out of his ground and was beaten 10 lengths when fifth in a 1m contest at this track four weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. STATES UNITED (8) was tackling a turf track for the first time last start and continued a solid run of form when fifth over 1m at Pimlico. Blinkers go on so he must be respected.
