ETHAN ENERGY (1) finished eighth over 1m1/2f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on April 20. Rates highly and should take some beating. CONSPIRACY FACT (2) scored at this track (Dirt) last time out with 1.75 lengths in reserve at the end of 1m1/4f. Has three wins here. Should park just off the speed. Best figures should see him run well. PANDO (8) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 0.6 lengths, over 1m1/2f at this track. One of the genuine contenders. POST FACTO (7) is having his first run since September 15. Has a strong record when fresh with two wins from three runs, the most recent over 1m1/4f at Gulfstream Park at the start of last prep. Sure to make his presence felt.
