SPRINGTOWN (10) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on March 24 finishing sixth and beaten 6 lengths over 5½f at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. UNIFIED REPORT (4) was well held last time in stakes class, finishing 11th over 5½f in stakes class at Evangeline Downs (Dirt). Can do much better this time. DUKE OF BLUE RIDGE (5) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on February 17 finishing sixth and beaten 24 lengths over 1m at Delta Downs (Dirt). Lines up. For the first time for trainer judy beavin. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. FORTY THREE (9) is mixing form recently on the dirt. Finished sixth at Evangeline Downs two starts back then improved to score at this track over 6½f five-and-a-half weeks ago. Hard to knock recent form. Worth plenty of thought again.
