DAVOLA (6) did little and finished 11 lengths from the winner in eighth over 5f at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth on debut at Delaware Park the run before. This is a nice drop in grade so he will be hard to beat. AYMAN (2) turned in a moderate effort on debut last start when fourth at this track (Dirt) over 6½f, beaten 7 lengths. Has upside and deserves another chance. HOW ABOUT IT (3) failed to threaten on debut last start, finishing in the second half of the field and 11 lengths from the winner over 6f at this track (Dirt). Likely to improve on that last effort. FRIOLENTO (7) is back after a break of six months. At the last run before the layoff he finished eighth over 6f at this track (Dirt). Has ability and must be included in calculations.
