SELF TAUGHT (5) has switched yards since scoring by 4 lengths at this track over 1710m on August 17. Can make an immediate impact for the new mentor. BREEZY MONEY (3) did a great job to score by one length over this course and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Finds another suitable race and can do it again. ROUNDBALL ROCK (1) improved sharply on his fifth two starts back at Thistledown (Dirt) with success over 1609m at this track (Dirt) two weeks ago, getting home by 3 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. BIG SPIN (8) lines up on the back of a 10 length fourth over 1609m at this track. Has sound form here including a win and four minor placings from eight starts. Must be respected.
