ONLY GET'N BETTER (1) Zipped home into 3rd beaten by 5 1/4L last run here and has a nice advantage with a good alley. First start for a new trainer. Appears as a winning threat. GOLD BUCKLE (2) Didn't find the line when 8th last time here. Can make a comeback and drawn nicely. No shock to see a win. BOURBON WISDOM (6) Looked outclassed when 4th last start at this venue. Capable of a strong comeback. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Can win. ROYAL AIR FORCE (5) Sub-standard effort when 6th last start around here but back to a rise in trip. Could fill the minors.
