MAN O ROSE (2) was an impressive winner last time over 6½f at this track (Dirt), scoring by 5 lengths to make it two in succession. Has a formidable combination with E Maldonado who has been aboard for his last two wins. Among the leading chances. Group 3 placegetter LOVESICK BLUES (3) is a distance specialist who has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1.3 lengths away in second over 6½f at this track (Turf) when he was in the firing line all the way. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MISTER ICEMAN (7) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when sixth over 6f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Should be peaking now and is expected to run well. ESCAPE ROUTE (4) was a placegetter on dirt over 6f at this track in a but missed the frame on turf over 6f at this track last time. Diego A Herrera who has two wins when partnering stays on. Solid claims on best form.
