VALHALLA'S PALACE (5) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing third over 7f at this track (Dirt) last time out. Great chance to find the winners' enclosure. MR SANDMAN (2) returns from a lay-off of four-and-a-half months and is having his first run for a new yard. Was a winner when fresh last campaign at Parx (Dirt) over 6f. One of the better hopes despite the layoff. SUBJECT TO CHANGE (8) finished sixth two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 1. 5 lengths as public elect after being in contention on the corner over 7f at this track (Dirt). Looks well placed so expect another big run. GUNS N' ROJAS (12) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when sixth and beaten 17 lengths over 1m1/4f at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). Nicely placed to bounce back.
