OBLIGING (4) was ridden quietly then made some inroads and finished 6 lengths away in fifth last time out over 5f at Gulfstream Park five weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Sure to prove very tough to beat. ROCK D'ORO (5) broke his maiden last start over 7f at this track (Dirt), scoring by 3 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Capable of making it two on the trot. TAPIRS VALOR (1) is a talented gelding who tackled a tougher race at his last run on December 7 and finished seventh behind Donut God over 6f at Listed level at this track (Dirt). One of the main chances with the blinkers coming off. SPEIGHT THE SNOW (3) is back at the races for the first time since October 23. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 5f at Presque Isle Downs. Definite top-three chance.
