NOAH CHANCE (7) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 5½f at Laurel Turf (Turf), getting home by 0. 8 lengths. Winning rider X Perez retains the mount. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot score again. GREAT HEAVENS (4) could only manage eighth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 5½f at Colonial Downs, beaten only 1. 5 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. TRANSACTIONAL GUY (2) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 1. 5 lengths when eighth in a 5f contest at Mountaineer Park three-and-a-half weeks ago. Taking on a better line-up this time but he cannot be taken lightly. ISLAND D'LITE (5) turned in another moderate effort last start when 10 lengths from the winner in tenth over 5½f at Colonial Downs Turf. Well placed to turn things around.
