RUSTLER (2) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on January 31 finishing sixth and beaten 5.5 lengths over 6f at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Has ability and should be right in the finish. E P MILTON (9) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then was beaten 3 lengths when fourth in a 5½f contest at Laurel a week-and-a-half ago after being in contention on the corner. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to be prominent. SMART COVERAGE (6) has switched yards since scoring by 2.75 lengths at this track over 6f on May 7. Worth plenty of thought. HOUSEBUILDER (1) finished ninth over 6f at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on January 22. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
