LUCKY CURLIN (10) ran below expectations last time after being in the firing line on the corner at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 0.8 lengths starting at 9/4. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. UNCAPTURED BOY (4) resumed over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt) last time out and showed good speed to lead throughout, scoring by 1.3 lengths. Expected to take some stopping again. KING RAMOS (6) scored on dirt over 1m1/4f at this track two starts ago then couldn't find the top-three on the same surface last time out over 1m1/2f at this track. Strong contender back on the turf. NAPOLEON'S WAR (11) was unplaced two runs back when fresh from a lay-off then again missed the frame last start over 7f at this track, beaten 17 lengths into seventh. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
