WESTERN RESERVE (7) missed the placings two runs back then was never in contention last start when 3.5 lengths away in eighth over 1f80yards at this track. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. WOMAN IN GOLD (4) is back at the races for the first time since August 24. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 1f80yards at Los Alamitos Qh. Yet to win when resuming but generally runs well with three minor placings from six tries. Now under the care of new trainer Rigoberto Guillen. Has found a suitable race. CARTEL N SASS (2) showed early speed from an outside draw last start and raced on the pace before boxing on well to finish third, beaten 0.8 lengths, over 1f31yards at this track (Dirt). Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish. FIRST BLUES MAN (1) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at this track (Dirt), finishing tenth and beaten 4 lengths over 1f31yards. Should be in the mix in this suitable race.
