TAKAO (1) Got the prize when winning last time around here and coming back up in distance. Added confidence with Y Lasso doing the steering and will appreciate a good draw. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. PANAMA HAPPY (5) Did a good job when winning last start at the track. Ultra competitive this preparation with 2 wins from 2 starts. Has to be strongly considered. EAGLE IN LOVE (2) First up from a spell. Dominant winner last time around here and drawn nicely. O Hernandez Jr has been successful before. Will be there at the finish. CHIEF MESA (4) Shot clear to win last time here and returns to more ground. L Lezcano and E Ocana make a formidable team. At least a place chance.
