EL MEDIANOCHE (12) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when second over 6½f at this track, beaten 6 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Going up a level this time but he cannot be underestimated. SAVE A PRAYER (7) improved sharply on his seventh two starts back at this track (Dirt) with a win over 6½f at this track (Dirt) a month ago, getting home by 0.3 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he can go back-to-back. IRISH TENOR (15) is resuming from a lay-off of nine months and having his first run for the Juan Carlos Guerrero yard. Was in the placings when when resuming from a lay-off last campaign at Aqueduct (Dirt) over 6f. Has ability and makes plenty of appeal. ORTHO STAR (1) ran below expectations last time at Churchill Downs (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Suitably placed so expecting a better run this time.
