DADDY YANKEE (4) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track (Dirt) over 5½f, beaten 1.5 lengths. Hard to beat. HASTEN (2) was in the money two starts back at Churchill Downs but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 13 lengths, at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 7f. Has the class to take care of this field. GENERAL MAXIMUS (6) finds it hard to win with just one success from 14 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 5½f at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Likely contender with strong prospects. PAEZ (11) booted up from a low draw to stalk the pace and lifted to score a gutsy win by 0.8 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 5½f last time out. Goes well at this trip, recording four minor placings and deserves respect.
