SCHEDULING DUDE (8) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 12 lengths over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Can atone for that last run. MALIBLUE (6) finished seventh two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 1. 75 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Likely to be there at the finish again. BANJO (5) hit the frame two starts ago at Penn National but ran below par last time when sixth and beaten 14 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). The engagement of Francisco Martinez is a positive move. Has the talent to return to form. VITEMENT (9) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a seventh over 6f at this track (Dirt) after he gave away a big start. Suitably placed so anticipating a bold performance.
