PET MAT (2) returned from a lay-off six-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 4.5 lengths into eighth over 1m1f at Tampa Bay Downs. Strips fitter and can bounce back. KATHEEB (9) returned from a lay-off four weeks ago when he was beaten 6 lengths into sixth over 1m1/4f at this track. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. OLD FLAG (3) drifted back when resuming last time out before boxing on well to finish fifth over 1m at this track (Turf). Backmarker who gets home hard. Watch for a big run. SALTED CARMEL (4) did a great job to score by one length over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. No reason he cannot salute again.
