SKATER (10) made his debut last start and was just fair in finishing eighth at Kentucky (Turf) over 1m, beaten 8 lengths. Progressive type who can play a role. SUNNY MAGIC (4) is back after a break of ten weeks. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing third at his latest appearance over 6f at Ellis Park (Dirt). Bold showing expected. HAUNTED FLAME (2) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 9 lengths when ninth over 1m at Ellis Park five weeks ago. Has the ability to find the winners' list. MODERN MASTER (6) failed to threaten on debut last start, finishing in the second half of the field and 14 lengths from the winner over 1m at Ellis Park (Turf). Likely improver with blinkers added.
