HEART HEADED (6) returns from a lay-off of ten weeks and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished fifth at Keeneland (Dirt) over 6f when when resuming last time in work. Key runner while fresh. DES DOIGTS (5) gets out over more ground. On the back of some solid form of late, the most recent effort a third over 5f at los alamitos (dirt). Can break through this time. EXPRESS LINE (4) recorded a gutsy maiden victory last time out over 6½f at Del Mar (Dirt), scoring by 0.3 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is a great chance to go back-to-back. ZOMBO BOMBO (3) returned from a lay-off last start as a winner, taking out a 6f contest at Del Mar by 5 lengths. Credentials hard to knock.
