Race Tip
Group 3 winner OCTANE (6) tackled stakes class last time and was beaten 13 lengths into seventh over 1m1f at Group 2 level at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Emisael Jaramillo has a strong winning record aboard the five-year-old gelding so he can improve sharply. SHAQ DIESEL (4) is a distance specialist who improved sharply on his eighth two starts back at Listed level at this track (Dirt) with success over 7f at this track (Dirt) five weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Steps up a level but he is worth serious consideration. LOCO ABARRIO (2) lines up for the first time since February 24. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 5½f at this track. Can make his presence felt. Group 2 winner VIVIR CON ALEGRIA (5) has two placings from three runs this prep and last start finished 1.75 lengths from the winner in third over 7f at this track (Dirt). Right in this.
