J B BOOKS (6) is a genuine five-year-old gelding who resumed with a solid second last time out at this track (Dirt) over 1609m. Should be in the finish. TOPPERS AT SEASIDE (1) held on well to finish third last time out over 1609m at this track (Dirt) after leading for much of the way. Expected to be in this for a long way. PROWLING CAT (5) was a strong winner last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt), scoring by 0.3 lengths to make it three on end. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. One to consider. LIGHT THE BEAM (4) did very well to fill a minor placing when resuming at this track but raced below expectations last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.

Form hard to fault. Last start led but faded 3rd of 7 at this track on June 14 over 1609m, 2 len behind Brother O' Brien carrying 55.5kg at $10.97. Before that 4th in a small field at this track on May 31 over 1609m, 2.25 len behind No Ordinary Tiger carrying 55.5kg at $17.09. Hard to beat if he brings his A-game.

Most recently ran second last in a small field at this track on May 31 over 1609m, 4 len behind No Ordinary Tiger with 55.5kg at $4.84. The run before that came from midfield and scored a big 6 len win at this track May 16 over 1609m defeating Hadlees Honor carrying 56.5kg at $3.75. Won't be beating too many of these home.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up 3rd in a small field at this track on May 31 over 1609m, 2 len behind No Ordinary Tiger carrying 55.5kg at $10.16. Second run from a spell ran second last of 7 at this track on June 14 over 1609m, 5.5 len behind Brother O' Brien carrying 55.5kg at $15.94. Easily accounted for last time out but this suits.
