WRITE OFF JERRY (11) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Ellis Park (Turf) over 1m1f after being prominent from the outset. Steps up a level but he is worth serious consideration. COMMON DEFENSE (13) found the frame when having his first start on a turf track last time out, beaten 1.75 lengths into third over 1m at Saratoga. Looked at home on this surface last time and is in the mix again. WARLANDER (10) finished 5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1m1/2f at Saratoga after being in the firing line on the turn six-and-a-half weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Blinkers go on among the leading chances. SALTED CARMEL (1) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1m3f at Saratoga after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Another forward showing is anticipated.
