JOHNNY PODRES (7) was beaten for early speed and didn't come into contention when a disappointing seventh over 5f at this track (Turf) most recently. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is one of the main contenders. BANDED ROCKET (4) continued the good recent form when he finished just 0.3 lengths away in second last time out over 5f at this track (Synthetic). Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. FAIRWAY TO HEAVEN (2) is a four-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Jose Francisco D'angelo yard. Resumes after finishing seventh at Woodbine at his last run six months ago. Not seen at the trials but looks well placed. Bold showing expected. IF NOT FOR LUCK (3) improved last start to finish third over 5f at this track. Nicely placed to maintain the form.
