WORA (9) found plenty to get the prize by 0.3 lengths three runs back at Tampa Bay Downs (Turf) before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Sound record at this distance with two wins and four minor placings from eight runs and is a key runner. FUN NOTION (6) did very well to fill a minor placing when resuming at Pimlico but raced below expectations last time over 1m at Laurel (Turf), finishing 11th and beaten 19 lengths. Finds a nice race and can bounce back. LORD BERRIER (5) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 2.5 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). Jose A Batista has won when aboard in the past and gets the ride again. Certainly one to consider. BEWARE OF PRIDE (8) did a great job to score by one length over this course and distance when resuming from a break last time out. Finds another suitable race and can go on with the job.
