TYSON'S LIL' STAR (7) turned in a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Expected to go well. MAYBETODAY (5) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), getting home by 3.5 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot score again. HEZA PISTOL (1) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third when resuming last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. DIXIE'S MEMORY (3) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but disappointed last time when out of the placings at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well.
