AWESOME BOURBON (1) is a promising type who scored at his only run last prep a year ago over 7f at Woodbine. Has won when fresh from a lay-off in the past. Has the speed to be prominent. Will play a major role. Set Weights ASHBUCKLE (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when fifth in a 5½f contest at this track six-and-a-half weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. THOUGHT (11) has switched yards since finishing second a month ago over 1m1/4f at this track. Comes here with definite top-three claims. LALOBA FEROZ (12) is back from a break of three-and-a-half months. Scored back-to-back wins before running below her best at the last run of the prep, finishing eighth over 1m at Tampa Bay Downs (Turf). Good effort at the start of last prep to fill a minor placing over 1m at Tampa Bay Downs. Anticipating a strong return to racing.
