C F V BULLET (1) hasn't featured at his last two runs, the latest when 8 lengths away in seventh at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Forgive the last couple in tougher company. Hard to beat this time. PHILIPSBURG (3) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 6f at this track (Dirt). In a suitable race and can play a major role. BREAKING NEWS (6) was a gutsy winner last time over 6f at this track (Dirt), scoring by 0.8 lengths to make it three wins on the bounce. Has a formidable combination with Alexis Centeno who has been aboard for his last three wins. Has winning claims on best figures. STAR KANOO (5) was in the money two starts back at Tampa Bay Downs but couldn't back it up last time when seventh, beaten 26 lengths, at this track (Dirt) over 1m1/4f. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
