BAD BOY BUTCH (1) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m at this track, beaten 10 lengths. Strips fitter and can figure prominently. CAREER RISK (6) is a six-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth at his latest appearance over 7f at this track (Dirt). Finds a suitable assignment this time and is a great chance to break through. HAL AWAY (8) finished in the placings when a 7 length third on dirt at Finger Lakes in a but then disappointed on turf last time at this track over 1m1/2f when seventh, finishing 10 lengths from the winner. Strong contender back on the dirt. WORTH THE WAIT (2) resumes from a lay-off of three months. Could only manage to finish ninth at the latest run over 1m1/4f at Gulfstream Park (Synthetic). Has ability so don't underestimate.
