LIBERATE (8) went forward and proved too strong when resuming last time out, scoring by 0.8 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). Can cross from an awkward gate. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. WETZEL (1) started at 4/1 last time but could only manage fourth, beaten 4 lengths, at this track over 1m. Sound record at this distance with two wins and seven minor placings from 12 runs and looks a top chance. DARK VADER (4) finished second last time over 6f at this track (Dirt), beaten 0.8 lengths. Has the talent to take care of this field. TEAM LEYENDECKER (3) started this prep with a win then a fair effort last time out when second over 6f at Mountaineer Park, beaten 0.8 lengths. One of the main hopes.
