A first patriot (4) finished out of the money two starts back then he settled well back and was beaten 5.5 lengths when ninth in a 1f180yards contest at lone star park four weeks ago.Faces an easier assignment so he is a major player.First patriotic diva (6) started at 39/5 last time and ran below expectations, finishing eighth and beaten 2 lengths at this track (dirt) over 1½f.Finds a suitable assignment and can make amends.Ferarri rogue (1) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by half a length over 1½f at this track (dirt).Shaping up nicely and he is one of the main chances.Pm uno dasher (9) returned from a spell four weeks ago when he was beaten 3.5 lengths into seventh over 1f180yards at this track.Fitter so anticipating a better run this time.
