BANDITSGOLDENCHILD (7) lines up for the first time since April 11. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 5½f at Laurel. Expect him to play a major role. LITTLE BIT RISKY (5) finished third two runs back at Penn National (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 0.1 lengths over 6f at Penn National (Dirt). Matilda Burnham scored on him last time and retains the ride. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. KISSLING (2) is racing in great heart and has two wins on end, most recently getting home by half a length over 4½f at Charles Town (Dirt). Should park just off the speed. One of the main contenders. MAXIMUS SPEED (6) recorded a strong on-pace win here last time by 1.3 lengths over 6½f. Winning rider Angel Cruz sticks. Solid claims on best form.
