RICHIES LOVE (14) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 6f at Aqueduct Inner Turf (Dirt) after being prominent from the outset. Should race just off the speed despite the wide draw. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. BLUE PILL (8) returns after six months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a eighth over 1m1/2f at Aqueduct Inner Turf (Turf). Has ability and is a solid chance. TWENTY ONE RED (10) was beaten 5. 5 lengths into second at Aqueduct two starts ago then finished 3. 5 lengths from the winner in fourth last time at Aqueduct Inner Turf (Dirt). Should be parked just off the speed. Solid top-three chance. NONNO JOE (7) returned from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 5 lengths into sixth over 1m1/2f at this track. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
