CLAYTON (1) ran below expectations last time at this track over 7½f, finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths. Backmarker who gets home hard. Will be tough to stop. PINE KNOLL (3) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 3.5 lengths away in fifth over 6½f at this track. Faces an easier assignment so he will be hard to beat. FOREST BUZZ (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3.5 lengths when sixth in a 6½f contest at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago after being prominent at the bend. This is a nice drop in grade so he is likely to play a big role. MOON LANDING (4) drifted well back last start then wound up strongly to finish fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 6½f at this track. One to watch for in the closing stages.
