DUEL FUEL (6) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 5½f after being in contention all the way. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. JACK'S ADVANTAGE (4) raced below his best last time when sixth over 1m at this track (Dirt), beaten 11 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. AMERICAN NIGHTMARE (3) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track (Dirt), finishing second and only 0.3 lengths from the winner at the end of 1m after being in the firing line on the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. EMPEROR'S GOLD (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 7f at Charles Town (Dirt). Goes up a rung or two but he is capable of running a bold race.
