DR JACK FLYER (2) proved too strong two runs ago at Charles Town. Less impressive last time out when second over 1m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CHAPS KNIGHT (6) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 3 lengths over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from six outings. Leading player again. STOLICH (1) turned in a modest performance when fourth last time out over 1m at Mountaineer Park, beaten 12 lengths. That followed a win at Mountaineer Park at the previous outing. Going up a level this time but he deserves plenty of thought. SLAVA UKRAINI (4) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1m at this track (Dirt) after being up on the pace until straightening. Good enough on his day and can play a prominent role.
