WILLY D'S (11) displayed plenty of early toe over 1m1f at Saratoga (Dirt) last time and defied all challengers to score by half a length. Has the gate speed to cross from out wide. Finds a suitable assignment and can take this out. WARRIOR JOHNY (4) is coming off a determined win last start over 1m1/2f in Listed grade at Prairie Meadows (Dirt) four weeks ago. Down in the weights this time so he is worth following up. ENCINO (3) finished seventh last start, beaten 14 lengths, over 1m1 1/2f at Pimlico. Is yet to miss the frame from four starts at this distance, including four wins. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will be in this for a long way. THIS IS USCAR (6) is a genuine type with four minor placings from seven starts this time in work. Finished 2.25 lengths from the winner in second last start over 1m in the G3 Steve Sexton Mile Stakes at Lone Star Park (Dirt). Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
