Started at 42/1 and came in 6th last start here but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Dropping back to a shorter trip. This looks a tough assignment.

Fresh from a spell. Started 22/1 and ran 5th last time around here but can find a nice position from the draw. Looks too tough.

On a quick turnaround. Odds of 9/2 and faded to finish 6th last run at this track. Has plenty of early speed. Chance and can measure up.

Was 17/1 and weakened under pressure when 10th last time here. Won't be far away during the run. Difficult to warm to at present.

Couldn't shake them off when 2nd beaten by 5 1/4L last time at this venue and having second race start. Has early speed and positions nicely. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Jumped at 10/1 and clearly outclassed when 7th last run at the track but was a debutant last start. Likely to get back. Will be a challenge.

First race appearance 3yo by Yaupon for trainer Miguel Clement. Jockey Samuel Marin is a bonus. Betting is the best guide.
