CAPTAIN GABE (4) finished second, beaten 1. 75 lengths, over 4½f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on debut 11 months ago and has been kept under wraps since. Sure to have improved over the break and expected to play a major role. ITCHY (6) finished second last time out over 6½f at this track (Synthetic), making it two career minor placings. Yet to miss the top-three in two runs at this circuit. Has the ability to take this out. VINO SUBITO (3) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1. 3 lengths from the winner in third over 6½f at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. RIPPIN (1) is a three-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 6 lengths when fourth over 6½f at this track (Synthetic). Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration.
