HEDGE RATIO (6) is coming along nicely this prep. Finished fourth when fresh from a lay-off two starts back at Aqueduct (Dirt) then improved and scored over 1m at Aqueduct (Dirt) six weeks ago, getting home by one length after being prominent at the turn. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to figure in the finish. BRICKLIN (5) was well held over 1m1f in the G1 Arkansas Derby at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) last time out. Should be poised just off the lead. Among the leading chances. RED ZONE RUNNER (4) is a talented colt who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 43 lengths behind Albus over 1m1f in the G2 Wood Memorial at Aqueduct (Dirt). Should park just off the speed. Will give backers a great sight. CLOCKER SPECIAL (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/2f at Keeneland, beaten 26 lengths into fourth. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
