COLT ROCK (1) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a third over 4½f at this track (Dirt) when beaten 3 lengths. This looks a nice assignment. BOUDIN (8) is returning from a lay-off of nine months. Finished sixth at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 6½f at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Krista Nicole Hetrick. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. MALIBU COWBOY (5) missed the placings two runs back then was always well out of his ground last start when 13 lengths away in sixth over 7f at this track. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is a major player. REBEL WARRIOR (9) was comfortably accounted for when third last time out over 6½f at this track, beaten 9 lengths, after a win at Penn National at the previous outing. One of the main hopes.
