MARSH CREEK (2) resumes from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months and is having his first outing under new trainer D L Mcfarlane. Finished fifth at Los Alamitos (Dirt) over 6f at the opening run last time in work. Key runner while fresh. LITE RANCHIN KID (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6½f at this track, beaten 12 lengths into eighth after being prominent at the turn. Nicely placed to take this out. COPPER COASTLINE (7) returns from a lay-off of 12 weeks and is having his first run for a new yard. Was a winner when fresh last campaign at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt) over 6f. Sound top-three prospects. Luis A Valenzuela gets the best out of this four-year-old gelding. Nicely placed to find some form.
