KING ROSSO (4) returns from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when seventh over 1m1/2f at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf). Comes here with definite claims. STRATUS (1) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 15 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when seventh over 7f at this track, beaten 11 lengths. Will enjoy a drop in class so he will be hard to beat. STARVIN (5) finished third last time over 7f at this track when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 5 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he deserves his chance. CONNOR (2) lines up for the first time since December 5. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 6f at this track. Definite top-three chance.
