EXCITABLE BOY (4) was well in commission when resuming last start over 4½f at this track (Dirt) when second, beaten 2. 75 lengths. Certainly deserves another chance. CATALINA EXPRESS (6) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 5½f at Colonial Downs Turf, beaten 9 lengths. Strips fitter and can take care of this field. BIG MO GEE (8) missed the frame last time when fifth at this track. Prior to that had been in the money on two consecutive occasions. Deserves a win and can improve sharply. WIN NO JOKE (2) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 6½f at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Looks to be in the right race so another bold effort is on the cards.
