MUSICMANSANDY (4) was a gutsy winner last time over 6f at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt), scoring by half a length to make it two wins on the bounce. Should be prominent from the outset. Expected to be in the finish. GREAT SPIRIT (8) lifted strongly to score when returning from a lay-off two runs back then was prominent in the run last time before finishing second over 4½f at this track (Dirt). Has a good record here at this journey with five wins and four minor placings from 10 starts. Suited here and a win will not surprise. Set Weights EET SHUGS (7) started at 4/1 last time and ran below expectations, finishing seventh and beaten 15 lengths at Laurel (Dirt) over 6f. Finds a suitable assignment and can turn things around. BELLA MELA (1) was in contention on the turn and finished third last start over 4½f at this track (Dirt), beaten 7 lengths. Fitter for that run. Capable of another bold effort.
