EMPERADOR (2) turned in a fine effort to score by 4 lengths at this track and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Finds the right race and can get the job done again. HAP HOT (4) proved too strong last start and scored by 1.5 lengths over 7f at this track (Dirt). Has a decent record at this track with one win and two minor placings. Elvin Gonzalez stays on. Leading contender. SOARING BIRD (1) finished third last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 7f at this track (Dirt), beaten 2.75 lengths. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish. AVAILABLE STAR (5) is putting together some solid results. Finished second at this track (Dirt) two starts back then got the job done by a nose last time out over 5f at this track (Turf). Likely to be in the finish again.
