CONVINCING (5) Initial race appearance 2yo by Mandaloun for Derek S Ryan. More confidence with jockey Paco Lopez guiding the horse. Watch betting. ALL STAR LEIGH (4) Ran home into 3rd beaten by 1 1/2L last start at Saratoga. Can go through the gears. Been in the placegetters each attempt this preparation. Among better hopes. NIGHT SKY (6) Finished 5th last run at Saratoga. Edgard J Zayas and Jorge Delgado show promise as a combination. Likely to be well placed early. Expect to go close.
