Race Tip
UNCLE HEADLEY (5) returns from a break of a year. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a fourth over 6f at Horseshoe Indianapolis. Expected to bring the good form from last campaign to this contest. BE LUCKY (4) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Not as effective last time out when seventh over 7½f at this track, beaten 41 lengths. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Angel Reyes gets the best out of this four-year-old gelding. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. ONE PUTT RICHIE (6) has switched yards since finishing second a week-and-a-half ago over 6f at Fairmount Park. Comes here with definite top-three claims. I'M YOUR CAPTAIN (7) settled well back before making steady ground in the straight last start to finish fourth, beaten 7 lengths, over this journey at this track (Dirt). Worth including.
