HE'S NOT JOKING (2) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 6f at this track when second, beaten 0.3 lengths. Has plenty of upside so he shouldn't be a maiden for long. MISTER MONOCLONAL (7) has not raced since his debut on May 24 over 5½f at Aqueduct (Dirt) when he finished fourth, beaten 5.5 lengths. Bold showing expected with the blinkers added. ADAPTED (4) finished 2 lengths from the winner in third on debut last start over 6f at this track. Promising type with improvement to come so he can feature again. DREXEL HILL (5) didn't do a lot on debut three weeks ago, finishing 9 lengths from the winner in fifth over 6½f at this track. Will take a lot from that experience. Not to be discounted.
