Race Tip

SUPER CHIEF (8) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 10 lengths back in fourth over 7f at this track (Dirt). Will be on the speed in transit and is expected to take some running down. MAGIA NERA (4) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at this track (Dirt), finishing ninth and beaten 21 lengths over 1m. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. BLUE PLATE SPECIAL (2) settled well back and never came on when resuming last start, finishing sixth and beaten 11 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. UNCLE MARTY (10) resumes. Didn't make an impact at its only run last prep on April 26 finishing seventh and beaten 18 lengths over 1m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Has switched to the Linda Rice stable over the break. Definite top-three chance.
