BERT'S PROSPECT (8) has switched yards since finishing third seven-and-a-half weeks ago over 1m at Del Mar. Plenty to like about his prospects. FLYING BLIND (4) did a great job to score by 2.5 lengths over this course and distance when resuming from a lay-off last start. Finds another suitable race and can play a major role again. WHO IS PAVEL (6) made progress last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 6½f at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. SOUTH COAST ROUTE (7) returned from a lay-off two weeks ago when he was beaten 3.5 lengths into fourth over 5½f at this track. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.
