I AM GRODD (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m at Sam Houston Park, beaten 5 lengths into fifth. Finds the right race this time and can take this out. READY AND ABLE (3) ran a strong third over 1m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) two runs back then was below his best last time over 1m1/4f when sixth, beaten 10 lengths. Better suited at this shorter trip so a bold showing is expected. FRANCHUCHIE (5) was in contention on the corner and finished second last start over 1m at Turfway Park (Synthetic), beaten 4.5 lengths. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. CRUE'S N CONTROL (4) finished 12 lengths from the winner in sixth at his most recent outing over 1m1/2f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Among the better chances in what looks a nice race.
