WHISKEY WES (2) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 1.1 lengths, over 1f80yards in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Has a solid record at the third run in and is worth following up. HEARTACHE TONITE (3) was well in commission when resuming last start over 1f130yards at this track (Dirt) when fourth, beaten 2 lengths. Sound record at this distance with seven wins and five minor placings from 18 runs and looks a top chance. HIGHER HEAT (5) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just one length from the winner in second over 1f130yards at this track after being prominent at the turn. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. LIGHTNING GIRL (6) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1½f at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.
