LAURA'S THUNDER (5) made progress last time out, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 5½f at Penn National after being in contention on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CURB (3) is struggling to break through but has been around the mark lately, last start finishing eighth over 6f at Laurel (Dirt). Must be respected. RIDE TO REMEMBER (8) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 7 lengths when fourth in a 5½f contest at Laurel three weeks ago. Won't find this as tough so she is perfectly placed to score. OVERNIGHT EXPRESS (7) is racing well, most recently finishing third four weeks ago over 4½f at this track (Dirt). Well placed and will be thereabouts again.
