ECHO CANYON (8) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at this track (Dirt) over 1m. Should camp just off the leaders. Expecting a bold showing. NATIONAL GENERAUX (7) finds it hard to win with two victories from 30 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fifth over 1m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Best figures measure up nicely. Makes plenty of appeal. SYNTACTIC (10) last appeared five weeks ago over 1m at this track when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Justin R Evans stable. Solid top-three hope. BENNY BUCKETS (4) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by 8 lengths over 1m at this track (Dirt). Well placed to feature in the finish again.
