JEFE DE OBRA (3) went forward last time and battled on gamely to finish just 0.3 lengths from the winner in second over 5½f at Keeneland (Turf) when returning from a layoff.Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done.Group 3 placegetter HARD TO FIGURE (4) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 11 starts.Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1m at this track, beaten 2 lengths.Placed to advantage and can run a bold race.GHOST OF MIDNIGHT (5) proved too strong two runs ago at Santa Anita.Couldn't follow that up last time out when second over 6f at Santa Anita, beaten 5.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn.Finds a suitable race and can return to winning ways.DISCO BALL (6) was in the firing line on the turn and finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 6½f at Santa Anita (Dirt), beaten a nose.Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role.
