JUNIOR HOT SHOT (2) returns from a layoff of four-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 1m1/2f at this track. Has a strong when resuming record, scoring on two occasions from three starts. Has ability and should be right in the finish. GIANT TEDDY (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 10 lengths when sixth over 6f at Turfway Park seven-and-a-half weeks ago. The engagement of Sahin Civaci is a positive move. Meets a stronger field but he is worth another chance. MOON LANDING (3) turned in a modest performance when fifth last time out over 5½f at Gulfstream Park, beaten 5 lengths. That followed a win at Gulfstream Park at the previous outing. Rafael Manuel Hernandez is a key engagement. Going up a level this time but he has the ability to bounce back. LUCKY ROMANCE (1) produced another moderate effort last start when 7 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1m at Fairgrounds. Finds a nice race and can atone.
