PROTEGE (7) failed to run out the longer trip last time when fifth at Gulfstream Park (Dirt) after sitting on speed but fading. Expected to bounce back. DEVIL AMONG US (8) was well in commission last start over 6f at Los Alamitos (Dirt) when fourth, beaten 5 lengths. Reunites with J J Hernandez which is a proven winning combination. Leading contender. PRAYER OF JABEZ (2) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished second at Listed level at Energy Downs (Dirt) two starts back then got the job done by half a length last time out over 6f in stakes class at Wyoming Downs (Dirt). Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. CLAMPETT (5) is back at the races for the first time since April 27. Scored over 6½f at this track to launch the last campaign. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
