HIGHTAIL FOX (3) recorded a gutsy maiden victory last time out over 1207m at this track (Synthetic), scoring by 0.3 lengths. Looks well placed and he is sure to go well. RAMBLIN BETTS (5) was well fancied last start over 1207m at this track (Synthetic) when second, beaten 2.25 lengths. Worth another chance. ONE STEP BEYOND (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he got a long way back over 1106m at Santa Anita, beaten 7 lengths into fourth. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player. BIGONZETTI (4) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on October 20, finishing fourth and beaten 3.5 lengths over 1207m at this track (Synthetic). Comes here with definite top-three claims.
