LONESTAR RUNNER (9) had been racing well with six consecutive placings before last start managing only tenth over 1½f at this track. Should park just off the speed. Expected to be in the finish. BELLAS FIRST ROGUE (7) has not appeared since he finished seventh over 1f180yards at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) on November 25. Has switched to the Emily Jeane yard. Capable of playing a major role. SHAKEUPMYBLOOD (8) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fourth and only 0.4 lengths from the winner at the end of 1f after being in contention on the corner. Meets some better types this time but a big run will not surprise. ALL ABOARD B (2) finished sixth over 1f at this track when resuming last start, beaten only 1.1 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
