FOURDATESFORHOCO (3) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 6f at Thistledown (Dirt). A repeat of the latest effort will see him in the finish again. BLESSEDNOTLUCKY (7) was well fancied last start over 4½f at Charles Town (Dirt) when third, beaten 3 lengths. Will appreciate the longer journey and can play a major role. JUDY'S COMET (4) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Thistledown, beaten 7 lengths into fourth after being in contention on the bend. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TAKE FIVE CHARLIE (5) is a two-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of W A Ward. By Cinco Charlie from Paola. Worth watching for a betting push.
