BUSHWICK BRUISER (5) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m1/4f at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. NIEUWENDYK (4) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track (Dirt), finishing second and only 0.1 lengths from the winner at the end of 1m1/4f after being in contention on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. BOOK MARKER (1) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 16 lengths when sixth over 6f at this track three weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. STORMY FIRE (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at this track, beaten 7 lengths into fourth. No surprise to see him in the frame.
