DON'TASK DON'TTELL (2) returns from a break of three months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 7½f at Remington Park. Goes very well when fresh including two wins. Expected to continue the good form from last campaign this time around. SOUL SACRIFICE (6) is in sparkling form, scoring at his last three starts, the latest win coming over 1m in stakes class at Remington Park (Dirt). Jose L Alvarez aboard again and should be in the finish. SEDUCTIVE U S A (7) got well back over 1m4f in the G3 John B. Connally Turf Cup at this track (Turf) last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 15 lengths away in seventh. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. CROOKED FELLOW (9) returned from a lay-off 11 weeks ago when he was beaten 21 lengths into seventh over 1m at this track. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
