MELLIFLUOUS (2) last appeared seven-and-a-half weeks ago over 1m at Gulfstream Park when he finished seventh. This is his first run for the Heather Irion stable. Will prove tough to beat for the new barn. SKELLY ROAD (6) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 6f at this track 11 weeks ago. Expected to go well. LEVEE WAS DRY (1) is a five-year-old gelding who has filled a minor placing just once in five runs. Safely held when resuming last start over 6f at this track (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 9 lengths. Has winning claims on best figures. GOOD NEWS ROCKET (4) ran below expectations when fresh from a lay-off at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) over 5½f last time, finishing fifth and beaten 8 lengths. Finds a nice race and can atone.
