ISLAND D'LITE (7) has had two runs since a break, the latest a fifth over 5f at Pimlico (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Has never been out of the placings at the third run in so he looks the testing material. STEVETHEVANDRIVER (8) has been kept fresh since finishing second last start over 4½f at this track (Dirt). Should be in the finish again. STRETCH THE TRUTH (3) turned things around last start and scored by 2 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn over 5½f at Mountaineer Park (Dirt). The engagement of James L Adams is noteworthy. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he can win again. BUBBA G (4) disappointed at his last run four-and-a-half months ago when seventh at this track (Dirt), that effort following back-to-back wins. Opened last prep with a win over 4½f at this track. Among the main hopes on his best figures.
