MAN O ROSE (8) finished seventh two runs back at this track (Turf) then improved last time out to score by 7 lengths after being in contention on the bend over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Finds a suitable race and can get the job done again. PRINCIP (2) is in top form, most recently recording a win by 0.3 lengths over 6½f at this track (Dirt) to make it two on the bounce. Should be poised just off the lead. Will prove tough to beat. THORNE HOUSE (3) comes here off a break of 11 months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 6½f at this track. Boasts a when resuming record of two wins and two placings from four starts. Among the better hopes. FIFTH STREET (7) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last time over 6f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1.5 lengths. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to be prominent.
