SECESSION (5) raced on the speed last time but couldn't finish the race off and clocked-in fourth over 1m at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. BLACK RUSSIAN (1) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 5½f at this track, beaten 20 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. GRAND FESTIVAL (11) again failed to feature last start, finishing fifth and beaten 15 lengths over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Backmarker who gets home hard. Among the main hopes. SAN RONIN (10) is a four-year-old gelding who is still a maiden after 17 starts but has been in the placings five times. Failed to threaten when fresh from a lay-off last start, beaten 11 lengths into seventh over 5f at this track (Dirt). Backmarker who keeps coming. Not to be discounted.
