Stake: -

ELLIE'S BOYFRIEND (3) Overrun late when 3rd beaten by 1 1/2L last time at the track and challenged by weaker competitors. Should come to hand quickly. Definite winning chance. ONE IMPROBABLE (4) Resumes from a break. Looked outclassed when 10th last run Parx At Philadelphia. Has the ability to turn things around but rising in class. Anthony Salgado is a bonus. Fights on bravely so consider. ROBERT'S MOON (1) Made up ground when 5th last start at Laurel Park and has drawn to do little work. Jr Joseph Rocco and John E Salzman Jr must be respected together. Could run a race. SPINNING MUSICIAN (5) Finished strongly when 2nd beaten by 4 1/4L last time at this venue but competing at a higher grade. Should get going late. In fine form this campaign. Possesses the talent and has some chance.

At $7.00 passed some rivals in the late stages when 5th last start at Laurel Park and has the ideal barrier. Challenged by more formidable competitors. Nice value bet.

Was well beaten when 5th last run at Laurel Park. Should improve from the last run and has a positive barrier. Matched against a stronger field. Prefer in something a lot easier.

Couldn't keep the momentum going throughout when 3rd last time around here and competing in an easier class. Should muster plenty of early toe. Going well this preparation. Will show up at the business end.

Fresh today. Jumped at $6.50 and faded away to finish 10th last run Parx At Philadelphia. Has the ability to turn things around but challenged by a tougher grade. Suited against these.

Kept boxing on when 2nd beaten by 4 1/4L last time here but racing in stronger company. Possesses good finishing speed. In fine form since resuming from a spell. Looks good for a place at least.
