Heartthrob halo (6) is coming along nicely this prep.Finished fifth when fresh from a spell two starts back at delta downs (dirt) then improved and scored over 6½f at delta downs (dirt) two weeks ago, getting home by 1.3 lengths after being prominent at the turn.Looks well placed so expect another big run.Cheatin charlie (9) showed early speed from a good draw when resuming last start then battled on well for second, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 6½f at delta downs (dirt).Hard to beat in this suitable race.Gallant buck (2) raced below his best last time when ninth over 6f at fairmount park (dirt), beaten 14 lengths.Has his share of talent.Hard to beat in this suitable race.Creme de bali (4) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a tenth over 5f at remington park (turf) after he got a long way back in the run.Best figures measure up nicely.In the mix.
