GENE'S BOY (1) got the job done again recording back to back wins, scoring at this track over 380m (21.55). Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to his credit. Looks the testing material. FORNER'S REIGN (2) doesn't win out of turn. Finished second (21.99) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Won at his only start from this box. Winning chance. CALL ME ALICE (7) is a handy dog who jumped from box 6 last time out and scored by 1.5 lengths at this track (21.89). Has a strong record out of this box with three wins and a minor placing from seven starts. Deserves serious consideration again. ZINA CORTEZ (6) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can bounce back.
