LONGBRANCH LOU (5) went fast early and went on to score by 1.5 lengths when resuming last time out over 1m at Pimlico (Turf). Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. ITALIAN SYMPHONY (2) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 10 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when tenth over 6f at Aqueduct, beaten 7 lengths. This doesn't look as hard so he is perfectly placed to score. THE PADDOCK PASTOR (4) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then was beaten 12 lengths when tenth over 1m1/2f at Aqueduct a month ago. Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. HANKSDIVININGROD (6) progressed nicely last time out to score by 0.8 lengths over 1m at this track (Turf). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
