SMILING JOJO (4) ran well below his best last time over 4f124yards at this track (Dirt), beaten 14 lengths into sixth at 7/2. Should camp just off the leaders. Expected to be in the finish. HAVAKASH READY (6) has switched yards since finishing fourth seven weeks ago over 5½f at Golden Gate Fields. Capable of playing a major role. DRUMADOON (5) turned in a modest performance when fifth last time out over 5f at Los Alamitos, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BEYOND COMPARE (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 4f124yards at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths into fourth. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
