Started at $28.00 and weakened to finish 6th last time around here but has the ideal barrier. First start for a new trainer but will be down in distance. Leaving right out.

Made considerable ground when 2nd last time here and gets a favourable alley. Jockey Joseph C Bealmear and trainer Jose Cazares are a pair that can't be ignored. Looks hopeful.

Looked good when 3rd last time at this track. Cruz Fernando De La and Brad H Cox are a promising combination. Very capable of taking this out.

Big effort to finish 3rd beaten by 4 1/2L last time at Ellis Park. Good enough chance at a very tempting price.

Odds of $7.50 and came in 5th last start at the track. Should jump out and bowl along. Knockout chance.

Odds of $5.00 and basic showing when 5th last time at Saratoga but solid career start. Stable is in form. Expected to be flashing home. Contender at a nice price.
