SAMMY AND SHORTY (6) is a progressive four-year-old gelding who resumes from a break of six-and-a-half months, his last appearance being a win over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Has never been out of the placings when resuming from two tries. Luis Raul Rivera is back on and has a solid record on the four-year-old, including two wins. Should be in the finish. SHANGHAI PRINCE (3) returns from a break of ten months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a sixth over 1m1/2f at this track. Nicely placed to kick off another successful campaign. WEEKEND BUZZ (1) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 1.3 lengths away in second over 6f at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. DASH OF FIRE (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Mahoning Valley, beaten 8 lengths into eighth. No surprise to see him in the frame.
