Race Tip

BAYTOWN BRUISER (5) was safely held when sixth last time out over 6½f at this track, beaten 19 lengths. That followed a win at Laurel at the previous outing. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MIRAGE (1) doesn't win very often but ran a strong race last time out over 1m1/2f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt), finishing second and beaten 0. 3 lengths after being prominent at the bend. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of a big performance. ARMED N DANGEROUS (2) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest at Keeneland over 1m1/2f. Yet to miss the frame from five starts at this journey, including two wins and has to be respected. ASKARI (6) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1m1/2f at Keeneland, beaten 12 lengths. Looks to be in the right race so he should be in contention again.
