CLOSE THE LOOP (4) will find this a little easier than her second on debut seven weeks ago, beaten 6 lengths at the end of 1207m at this track (Dirt). Sure to take a lot from that hitout so she should be in the finish again. BOUNDING ALONG (2) turned in a solid run on debut last start, beaten a nose into second at this track (Dirt) over 1408m. Sure to take a lot from that hitout so she shouldn't be a maiden for long. INTO THE UNKNOWN (1) finished second last start over 1408m at Saratoga (Dirt), beaten 10 lengths. This is the right race and can find winning form. GOTTA GUN RUNNER (6) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 14 lengths away in seventh over 1408m at Saratoga. Better than recent efforts suggest.
