PAYNTED THUNDER (8) was only a nose from the winner in second last time out in a small field over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt). Will be fitter for that run, looks likely to feature again. MOONFLYER (4) is yet to break through in 18 runs. Finished fourth after being in contention on the bend at his last appearance over 1m1/2f at Laurel (Dirt) on December 22. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. AWESOME HARRY (1) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt) after being in contention all the way. Nicely placed to take this out. LUCKY DOUBLE ZERO (9) was below his best last time, finishing sixth and beaten 9 lengths over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt). Has his share of talent and can do a lot better.
