Comment: Smart performer at one stage; had plenty to spare at the line when winning three weeks ago at Penn National in a claimer; although up in class he appears to be in top form so one to watch out for.

Comment: Not beaten that far in fourth (6l, sloppy track) at Gulfstream Park 18 days ago in a claimer; jockey booking is a positive; he's a serious player as lower claiming tag should make this easier and has been on the scene in the recent past.

Comment: Fair debut effort (here, 5f) when ahead of Polvellan at 9-4 three weeks ago; nicely bred (by Cajun Breeze); arguably the one to beat as seemingly there is more to come from this nicely bred son of Cajun Breeze and he knows more about the job in hand.

Jockey: Jose Batista Trainer: Lynn Ashby Age/Wt: 2/8-7 F: 5

Comment: Finished just behind Williston Warrior 20 days ago when fifth here; related to Grade 2 winner Double Crown; higher claiming tag here so up in class; could be involved with a little experience under his belt.

Jockey: Sonny Leon Trainer: Cesareo Marquez Age/Wt: 6/8-9 F: 4646-9

20/1

Comment: Last of nine in a maiden special weight at Monmouth Park on her first start for this trainer two months ago; winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 15; others appeal more as has not been seen doing much trackwork recently.
