OUSTER has posted a string of good efforts in defeat and this rates a good opportunity for him to gain a breakthrough success at the sixth time of asking. The unexposed Joint Resolution may prove the chief threat if improving on his debut fourth here on the dirt course. Conquist may fare best of the remaining opposition.
