ZONG TOUGH (1) was in the money two starts back at Fairgrounds but was unable to repeat the effort last time when sixth, beaten 4.5 lengths, at Fairgrounds (Dirt) over 1m. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. SHANKINSTINE (3) turned in an eye-catching run over this journey last time, settling out the back before winding up late to finish 3.5 lengths away in fifth at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Will drift back but is going to be hard to hold out. JIMMIE'S HALO (2) turned in a moderate run over this journey last time out, settling out the back and failing to feature when fifth over 1m1/4f at Evangeline Downs (Dirt). Must raise the bar but a win is not out of the question. INTO WISHING (6) is back at the races for the first time since February 21. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 7f at this track. Can make his presence felt.
