CAPTAIN PARTY (2) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6½f at Turfway Park, beaten 8 lengths into fifth. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. LEAVENWORTH (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fourth in a 1m1/4f contest at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago after being in the firing line on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. SAGE RUNNER (4) finished 3.5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 6f at this track after being in contention on the bend a week-and-a-half ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Strong top-three chance. THAT MAGIC MOMENT (8) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/4f at Mountaineer Park, beaten 44 lengths into sixth. Nicely placed to find some form.
