BANDERA AZTECA (5) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by half a length over 6f at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ROCHESTER'S FINEST (7) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a second most recently over 7f at North Dakota Horse Park (Dirt) when beaten a nose. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Expected to be in the finish. TENFORTHEBIGGUY (9) lifted strongly to score last time with a one length win over 5½f at this track, making it two straight wins. Can measure up again. DOC HIGGINS (1) hasn't been far away lately, beaten one length at his most recent outing when second over 7½f at this track. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Sure to be thereabouts.
