GAMETIME GLADIATOR (2) settled well back last start and never threatened when 4 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1673m at Delaware Park (Dirt). Faces an easier assignment so he will be hard to beat. BIG SPIN (1) was always well back over this course and distance last time and never threatened in the straight, beaten 9 lengths into fourth. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. CITIZEN (3) settled well back and failed to come on in the straight last start when fourth, beaten 11 lengths, over this course and distance. Finds a nice race and can find winning form. HE'S A SHOOTER (4) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when sixth, beaten 37 lengths, at this track (Dirt) over 1609m. Well placed and should be in the mix.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming ran last of 7 at this track on September 15 over 1609m, 21 len behind Breezy Money carrying 56kg at $19.80. Second run from a spell 6th of 8 at this track on October 4 over 1609m, 21 len behind Sudden Shift carrying 56kg at $18.50. Easily accounted for last time out but this suits.
