LUCCI (8) is having his first run since November 16. Has a strong record when fresh with three wins from five runs, the most recent over 5½f at this track at the start of last prep. Sure to go well. MID DAY IMAGE (2) returns from a break of five-and-a-half months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a fourth over 5½f at this track. Goes well when fresh including three wins. One of the leading players. SPEAK UNITY (3) did a good job last start to finish second at this track (Turf) over 5½f, beaten half a length. Cherry-ripe now. Commendable record at this trip with a win and two minor placings and has to be included. STRUGAR (7) finished win when resuming last start at this track over 6f.
