GOLDEN ISLE (11) returned from a lay-off a week-and-a-half ago when she was beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth over 5½f at Presque Isle Downs. Second up record is very strong. Strips fitter and can figure prominently. CASTLE LIGHTS (10) ran below her best when fifth last start over 4½f at Charles Town (Dirt), beaten 8 lengths. Can bounce back. MISS NUCKOLS (4) was beaten just a nose last start when second in a small field over 2f at this track (Dirt). Winning rider Y Yaranga stays aboard. Sure to be competitive. FLAG SALUTE (3) ran below expectations last start, finishing seventh and beaten 22 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 5½f. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
