LOOSE GOOSE (12) comes here off a last-start fourth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1m at Laurel. Is very effective at this distance with two wins from eight runs. Ready to run well. SHARP SHOT (6) showed good early speed last start before boxing on well and finishing third, beaten 14 lengths, over this trip at this track (Dirt). This doesn't look as hard so he is one of the main contenders. PORCH Set Weights ING (3) ran well below his best last time over 1m1/2f at Penn National (Dirt), beaten 5 lengths into fourth at 5/2. Should camp just off the leaders. Should be involved in the finish. PRACTICAL SENSE (2) was beaten 6 lengths into sixth over 1m1/2f at Laurel last time out. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
