A race that lacks early pressure on paper. BOSCH (3) locally trained gelding who has a terrific record on his home track and was back in the money for the first time this prep 2 weeks ago when finishing runner-up. This field is not as deep, and he is poised to go one better. RICHIE'S DREAM (6) settled back from a wide gate here a fortnight ago and charged home too late, finishing second by a nose. She is likely to get back in the running again, but with a very light weight, she can have the last say this time. I'M LULU (7) ran on late for fourth in her first run over a middle distance here last start. She will be at her peak fourth up from a spell and can figure in the top 3 here. FLY MY WEY (1) has a terrific record here and gets his best draw in some time. He is capable of taking this out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bosch will be hard to beat, and Fly My Wey, is worth an each-way ticket at odds.
