ILLINI (2) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when ninth over 6f at Turfway Park, beaten 8 lengths. Has the ability to return to the winner's list. TONIGHT (7) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 2. 25 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). That continued the solid form this campaign, with five wins and three minor placings from 10 runs. Top chance again. MORE THAN FIVE (4) worked home well and finished 1. 75 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 6f at this track, an improvement on his fifth at Turfway Park the run before. Likely improver with strong prospects. COOL COUPLE (8) brings the right form to this race after taking out a 6f contest at this track last time out by 2. 75 lengths. One of the contenders.
