MAGNIFICENT RIDE (5) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing second over 6f at Delaware Park (Dirt) last time out. Hard to beat once again. WRITER'S REGRET (4) is resuming from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months and having his first run for the Timothy Kreiser yard. Was in the placings when when resuming from a lay-off last campaign at Finger Lakes (Dirt) over 5½f. Has ability and should be right in the finish. INFAMOUS NONO (1) is a distance specialist who settled well back when 11 lengths from the winner in seventh over 5½f at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fifth at Delaware Park the run before. Finds a more suitable contest and can turn things around. FLY FLY AWAY (6) got the prize two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when sixth over 4½f at Charles Town, beaten 5 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
