Picked up late to win last start at Pocono Downs and has minimal work to do from the alley. Should muster plenty of early speed. Should give this a shake.

Close to claiming the win last start at Pocono Downs and putting a tidy record together so far. Driver Aaron Merriman is a plus. Has strong claims.

Caught the eye when 3rd last time at Pocono Downs. Always seems to find the line well. Very capable of taking this out.

Should come to hand quickly. Has been a model of consistency since returning from a break and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Has a good chance.
