PYC ROYAL TIME (1) resumes from a lay-off of five-and-a-half months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1f80yards at Lone Star Park (Dirt). Ready for a bold run. MAHOMEY (2) is a four-start maiden who filled a minor placing at Retama Park (Dirt) at the last run before lay-offing. Expect he has come on over the break. Has ability and can hit the ground running this campaign. GNARLEY (7) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 3f213yards at Lone Star Park five-and-a-half months ago. Francisco Giles has registered two minor placings when on board. Expected to measure up. FURRBIDDEN LOVE (8) is back after a break of five-and-a-half months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing second at her latest appearance over 1f80yards at Lone Star Park (Dirt). Solid top-three hope.
