QUICK LUNCH (3) ran below expectations last time after being in contention on the bend at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten one length starting at 9/2. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. SHELBY (6) showed good speed to stalk the pace before drawing clear to score by one length over 1f80yards here last time out. Will go forward and should be in the finish again. ADASHA DOS TRES (4) produced a fair effort when resuming from a lay-off last start, beaten 2.5 lengths into eighth over 1f at this track (Dirt). Second up record is strong so he is among the winning hopes. DRAGONES (1) is back from a break of three months. Closed last campaign with a narrow defeat over 1f130yards at Lone Star Park (Dirt). Worth plenty of thought.
