ODE TO BALIUS (6) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing third and beaten only 1.3 lengths over 1m at this track (Dirt) after being in the firing line on the corner. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. TRULY LEGIT (3) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 8 lengths back in third over 1m1/4f at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). This is a more suitable contest and can find winning form. ONORE (1) accounted for a maiden field over 1m at this track (Dirt) last start, finishing 11 lengths ahead of the nearest rival. Re-unites with Jose A Bracho who was on board last start. Harder this time but still one to consider. STREETS OF WAR (2) was safely held last time when he dropped out to finish ninth at Turfway Park (Synthetic) but down in the weights. Better than last start and can improve sharply.
