DENNARD (3) has been a regular in the winners' stall of late including last start in dominant fashion over 1m1f at Listed level at Grants Pass (Dirt). Finds a suitable assignment and can add to his outstanding run. KO SAMUI (6) has five placings from eight runs this campaign, most recently finishing third as favourite over 1m at Fresno (Dirt) after being in the firing line on the bend. Freshened for this. Expected to be in the finish. EMPEROROFTHENORTH (1) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 5 lengths over 1m at Emerald Downs (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. POPULIST (5) was narrowly beaten at his latest appearance at Louisiana Downs (Dirt) over 1m1/4f nine weeks ago. Worth plenty of thought.
