DRINK DEEPLY (6) finished 7 lengths away in fifth last time out over 6f at this track four weeks ago. Steps up in distance. The one to beat in this line up. NEW BOOTS (5) finished second, beaten 6 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 6f at this track (Dirt) after she was in contention on the bend. Suitably placed to crack the maiden win. PASSAGE EAST (4) is resuming from a lay-off of four months and having her first run for the N Morris yard. Was in the placings when when resuming from a lay-off last campaign at Finger Lakes (Dirt) over 5f. Has found the right race and is worth including. DIVINING SMILE (3) fought on for third last start over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt), beaten 5 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Likely improver with strong prospects.
