BOURBON SPIRIT (6) returns from a break of 11 months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a third over 5½f at Horseshoe Indianapolis. Expected to bring the good form from last campaign to this contest. RECKLESS RANSOM (3) was a dominant winner last time at this track (Dirt) over the same distance. Is going okay this campaign, recording three wins and four minor placings from eight starts. Leading contender. DRAFT CHOICE (1) finished out of the money two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 7 lengths when seventh over 6f at this track six weeks ago. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. CABOCHON TREASURE (7) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 5½f at Evangeline Downs, beaten 5.5 lengths. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
