JUPITER (3) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when sixth, beaten 10 lengths, over 6½f at Presque Isle Downs (Synthetic). Nicely placed to feature in the finish. SCRIMPER (5) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 2. 75 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 6f. Victor R Fernandez who has two wins when partnering stays on. Should be in the finish. MELLIFLUOUS (1) got home by half a length last time out over 6f at this track (Dirt). Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Can measure up again. VODKA N GINGERALE (4) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt) over 6f, finishing fourth and beaten 4 lengths. Goes well at this trip, recording five minor placings and has solid claims.
