TACTICAL TRACKSTAR (7) returns from a spell of six months and did win first-up last time in work over 1207m at Saratoga (Dirt). Can return in winning form. FISCAL DRAG (1) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 7 lengths when fifth in a 1408m contest at this track three weeks ago. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. STRAND ROAD (3) is back after a break of five months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1207m at this track. Looks a strong top-three prospect. MAGNI (4) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1811m at this track, beaten 16 lengths into fourth. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
