Stake: -

BLACK FLY (1) Came in 3rd last start at this track and facing a weaker grade. Jockey Angel R Rodriguez consistently rides well for this stable. Will be hitting the line strongly. Top prospects against this opposition. DESPERATE DREAMS (2) Ran past a few when 4th last start at this venue and up against a less challenging field. Always seems to find the line well. Drawn nicely. Down in trip. Must be considered. KELLY'S INTO LUCK (5) Dictated the tempo when winning by a margin of 1 3/4L last run at the track. Angel R Quinones and Brandon L Kulp are a promising combination. Is in good order and can run well. NO ARGUMENT (3) Faded to finish 4th last time here but dropping in class. Possesses very good closing speed. Could place.

Ran 3rd last start around here and taking on a lower class of opponents. Angel R Rodriguez and Brandon L Kulp make an imposing pair. Has very good finishing speed. Should give plenty of sight.

Was $4.33 and hit the line well when 4th last start here and stepping down to a lower level. Finishes off strongly. Will try to take advantage of the alley. Will be competitive.

Was $18.00 and didn't find the line when 4th last time at this venue but facing a weaker group of contenders. Shows good closing speed. Very difficult to back.

Was amongst the placegetters when 2nd beaten by just short of 9L last start here. Has a great burst of speed late. Will be a difficult test.
