DATESFREEDOM (8) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track (Dirt) over 1m1/2f, beaten 0.3 lengths. Cherry-ripe now. L E Perez who has seven wins when partnering stays on. Fitter and a likely improver. TIBERIUS MERCURIUS (3) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only fifth over 1m1f at Saratoga. Has a win and three minor placings at this journey from five starts and is a key runner. SPETTRO (4) stuck on well when resuming last start to finish third over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt) after showing good early speed. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. ACTIVE DUTY (5) was comfortably accounted for when sixth last time out over 1m at Aqueduct, beaten 12 lengths, after a win at Aqueduct at the previous outing. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
