Race Tip
Group 3 placegetter SAMMY JOE (3) was prominent from the outset when third over 1f80yards at this track (Dirt) last time out. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Sure to be in the finish. VODKA FROM TEXAS (1) Placed in a Group 3. Is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 11 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when seventh over 1f180yards at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Has the class to feature in the finish. CAPTAIN TLC AW (2) was prominent at the turn and finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 2f at this track (Dirt), beaten 3 lengths. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention. BLESS EM DIRTY (7) was in contention on the turn and finished second last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 2f at this track (Dirt), beaten 2 lengths. Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders.
