VOLKERT (10) is a six-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Jorge Delgado barn. Scored at his latest appearance at Gulfstream Park (Synthetic) four months ago. Not seen at the trials but goes well fresh from a lay-off, filling a placing three times from five runs. Should prove tough to beat. MAJESTIC EAGLE (1) grade 3 winner. Was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fourth. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. FADETHENOISE (9) is progressing well this campaign. Opened with a sixth at Penn National (Turf) two starts back then got the job done by 2.5 lengths last time out after being in contention on the bend over 5f at Penn National (Turf). No reason he cannot salute again. EDDIE THE GREAT (2) lifted strongly to score by half a length three runs back at this track (Turf) before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Nik Juarez stays on. Must be respected.
