MR PENNY PINCHER (3) built on a nice third two starts back at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt) with success as favourite over 6f at this track (Dirt) three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 1. 3 lengths. R Feliciano scored on him last time and retains the ride. Looks well placed so expect another big run. VODKA N GINGERALE (1) went forward and proved too strong when resuming last time out, scoring by 4 lengths over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. HANDSOME PANTS (4) is racing well. Scored at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) in a then finished third, beaten 2. 5 lengths, over 6f at this track (Dirt) at the latest appearance three-and-a-half weeks ago. Winning rider Becerra Fernando Salazar stays aboard. Should be involved in the finish. WITHOUT OBJECTION (6) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on March 14, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths over 6f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Worth plenty of thought.
