REVOLUTION RISING (4) is back after a break of six-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff he finished seventh over 5½f at this track. Ready for a bold run. LEAN ON ME (8) turned in a strong run last time at the first run of the prep when she settled well back before running on hard to be beaten only a long neck into second over 5½f at this track. Should run on into the finish again. DOWN THE WICKET (1) finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 5½f at this track when he did his best work late, beaten 1.4 lengths. In the right race and is sure to prove hard to beat. IZ SHAFT (3) turned in a strong performance when resuming when in the money at this track but disappointed last time when ninth, beaten 7 lengths, at this track over 5½f. Best figures measure up nicely. Solid top-three prospects.
