Race Tip
TRAFFIC MASTER (7) went forward last start over 1m1f at Aqueduct (Dirt) and held on well for third, beaten 4.5 lengths. Faces an easier assignment so he is one of the main contenders. IRA THE ICON (2) has switched yards since scoring by 13 lengths at this track over 1m1/4f on December 31. One of the better hopes. SMOKE WAGON (1) resumes in a similar race to his last run nine weeks ago when he scored by 7 lengths. Has never been out of the money in six starts here including a win. Among the better hopes. SOCIALLY AWKWARD (3) pushed forward and was a determined winner by 16 lengths over 1m at Penn National (Dirt) last time out. Has been in sound form this prep with two wins from five starts. Not to be discounted.
