REEF RUNNER (1) is progressing nicely and wasn't too far away last time when second over 5f in Listed grade at this track (Turf). Form here at the trip is sound with four wins and five minor placings from 10 runs. Best form puts him right in this. EAMONN (9) resumed over 5f in stakes class at this track (Turf) last start and was too good for his rivals, scoring by 0.1 lengths. Fitter for that last hitout and is expected to run well again. BRING THEBAND HOME (7) was well held in the Nearctic Stakes won by Patches O'Houlihan over 6f at Woodbine at his last appearance six months ago. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. One of the main contenders. XY SPEED (10) raced on the speed and lifted to score by 2.25 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Finds the right race and can keep the ball rolling.
