FAVORITE JESSHAWK (2) scored by 0.3 lengths last start at this track (Dirt) over this distance after he was in the firing line on the bend. Form over this journey is strong, boasting two wins from four starts. Has a strong association with Ricardo S Ramirez who has been in the saddle for his last two wins. Best form puts him right in this. MIDNIGHT MOOD (1) landed his maiden success over this course and distance last time, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Nicely drawn on the fence and he cannot be underestimated. COMPETENT (4) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when second at this track (Dirt) over 1f130yards, beaten 0.3 lengths. Cherry-ripe now. Hasn't been far away this time in work with two minor placings from four starts. One of the main contenders. NAIVE (5) raced on the speed from the outset and went to score by half a length last time over 1f130yards at this track (Dirt). Winning rider Jose M Nicasio sticks. Must be respected.
