ARRO SMASH (5) raced on the speed and kept going to score by 1.3 lengths last time out over 1m at Saratoga (Dirt). Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is right in contention. RECKER POINT (1) went forward last start and proved too strong, getting home by half a length over 1m at Ellis Park (Dirt). Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the speed. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of a big performance. Group 3 winner RAISE CAIN (6) finished fourth last time out over 1m at Ellis Park, beaten 3.5 lengths. Has solid credentials. GUNOE (8) lines up for the first time since November 30. Looking to emulate his win at Horseshoe Indianapolis when returning from a lay-off last prep. Worth plenty of thought.
