Presque Isle Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Special Weight
AMERICAN SURFER (2) Started off strong but faded towards the end when 2nd beaten by 5 3/4L last start at this track and gets a favourable draw. Expected to be flashing home. Sure to be competitive and must include. TRAIL OF ROSES (1) Grabbed towards the finish when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last time at this venue and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Shows good early pace. Go close. FOZZER (3) First up after 68 weeks and finished 3rd first up last preparation at Turfway Park. Have to respect the recent William D Cowans form. Has to be included. RIZZ (5) Lost ground in the run home when 9th last start at Saratoga and down in trip. Jockey Gaddiel A Martinez and trainer Adam Rice deserve serious attention. Worth a look and is a rough hope.

Gave plenty of cheek when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last time here and has minimal work to do from the draw. Should come to hand quickly. Suited against these.

Was in the hunt for a long way when 2nd last start here and has a positive draw. Displays very good closing speed. Racing consistently this preparation. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

First up after 68 weeks and did well when 3rd first up last preparation at Turfway Park. Have to respect the recent stable form. Significant value and can go close.

First up from a break. Odds of $43.00 and finished 6th last time at Churchill Downs but having second race start. Likely to get back. Not likely to pull off the victory.

At $8.50 looked outclassed when 9th last start at Saratoga and back to a shorter distance. Jockey Gaddiel A Martinez and trainer Adam Rice deserve respect as a team. Hard to see it being competitive today.
