FIESTY SIX (3) could only manage fifth when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 2½f at this track, beaten only 0.3 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge. CAN RUN (6) is back after a break of four months. At the last run before the layoff he finished fifth over 1½f at Fair Meadows (Dirt). Hard to beat if back in good order as anticipated. LITTLE CAPI (8) was prominent at the turn and finished second last time over 2½f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1.5 lengths. Ready to go one better. A POLITICAL THEORY (1) ran below expectations when fresh from a lay-off at Lone Star Park (Dirt) over 1½f last time, finishing seventh and beaten 2.25 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
