OBVIOUSLY TOO (4) is on a six-day back-up after finishing in the money over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Nice run last time and should prove tough to beat. BARBIERE (2) settled well back then made a little ground and finished 6 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1408m at Canterbury Park nine days ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Solid top-three chance. TAPIT DOWN (3) finished second at Fonner Park two runs back but was less effective last time over 1207m at Fonner Park (Dirt), finishing 13 lengths back in eighth. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. KNIGHTED (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1408m at Legacy Downs, beaten 5.5 lengths into fifth. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
