PRAYING FOR RAIN (8) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound second over 1½f at this track (Dirt) after being in contention on the turn. Meeting a deeper field this time but he cannot be underestimated. FAMOUS FIRST (3) gave away a considerable start over 1f130yards at Prairie Meadows (Dirt) last time before hitting the line well to finish fourth. Will drift back but is going to be hard to hold out. MR MISTRO (7) is a five-start maiden who returned last time and finished fifth at this track (Dirt) over 1f130yards, beaten one length. Bold showing expected with added fitness this time. TOXIC LIPS (6) returns after four months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a seventh over 1f31yards at Fair Meadows (Dirt). Has ability and is worth including.
