FORCEFUL (1) is yet to break through in three runs. Finished 12th at his last appearance over 1m1/2f at Pimlico (Turf) on May 17 after he got a long way back in the run. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. FOURONEOHSMOKESHOW (8) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound third over 1m at Pimlico (Turf). Suitably placed to crack the maiden win. MARTY'S MAGIC (2) started at 11/10 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 36 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1m1f. Finds a nice race and can get the job done. ELELEUS (5) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 3.5 lengths when eighth over 1m at Pimlico (Turf). Should progress from that last outing and poses a genuine threat.
