Set Weights ITZER (14) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a third most recently over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf) when beaten 0.8 lengths. Record here is impressive with two wins from five starts. Should be in the finish. RON DON SCORESE (5) settled well back and never threatened when eighth over 1m1/4f at Parx (Dirt) last time out. Has the ability to take care of this field. HORNBEAM (2) was comfortably accounted for when fourth last time out over 1m1/4f at Delaware Park, beaten 8 lengths. That followed a win at Penn National at the previous outing. Faces an easier assignment so he is a major player. GOODLUCKCHUCK (12) last appeared three weeks ago over 7f at Colonial Downs when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Emanuel J Geralis stable.
