GRATIFYED (10) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1f180yards at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths into sixth. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role. DASHIN GIRLFRIEND (3) returns after five-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a seventh over 1½f at Remington Park (Dirt). No surprise if she was able to get off the mark. DASHINGTHEDAYAWAY (11) returns after three months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 1f at Delta Downs (Dirt). One of the leading chances. POLLY WAGON (4) finished second over 1f31yards at Retama Park (Dirt) at her most recent appearance on July 18. Definite top-three chance.
