TOP RECRUIT (1) missed the placings last time out over this distance at this track (Synthetic), beaten 1.4 lengths. Has a very good record here including two wins from four starts. Must be respected. CASHIER CHECK (3) was well in commission last start over 1m1/4f at this track (Synthetic) when fourth, beaten 5.5 lengths. Deserves another chance. THALBERG (6) registered a strong win at this track two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when in the firing line on the turn before finishing second over 6½f at this track, beaten half a length. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. VALENTINE BUG (5) ran below expectations last time at Mountaineer Park (Turf) over 7½f, finishing fourth and beaten 2.25 lengths. Must be respected.
