Comment: Has won at this course; has proven competitive in a race of this nature; split a number of these rivals when fourth beaten just under 2l last month in an allowance race; should have every chance if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success and his jockey excels from low numbers over this C&D.

Jockey: Isaac Castillo Trainer: Daniel Siculietano Age/Wt: 7/8-9 F: 86-52

4/1

Comment: Quality operator in his prime; solid effort in defeat to finish runner-up after going off 18-1 when ahead of a couple of these two weeks ago, showing early speed to lead from a wide draw in a claimer; class dropper as runs for a $12.5k tag here; could be in the mix if replicating most recent run.

Spartacus's Dude

Jockey: Paco Lopez Trainer: Patrick McBurney Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 53218

7/1

Comment: Was behind two of these rivals five weeks ago when eighth at Tampa Bay Downs on debut for this trainer in a claimer; shown recent signs of improvement; easy to see him making an impression despite defeat last time as he was successful two runs ago and sights are lowered reflected by lower claiming tag.

Tap The Candy

Jockey: Andy Hernandez Trainer: Michael Aro Age/Wt: 6/8-9 F: 3-285

8/1

Comment: Form has an up and down look to it and perhaps looks to have to reached his ceiling; fifth of eight beaten 12l at Parx 48 days ago when dropped in distance on first run for this trainer in a claimer; up in class (in for $16k); looks more likely to place than win so unlikely to do better than a supporting role.

Comment: Finished behind Bean Machine 21 days ago back down to 5½f when beaten 11l on debut for new trainer in a claimer; struggled a bit since winning a maiden claimer at Delaware Park in October; only ride on the card for Franklin Gonzalez; easy enough to swerve with a few rivals in good form.

Comment: Better than this level in her pomp; not beaten too far when fourth at Gulfstream Park in a claimer six weeks ago; clear chance as lower claiming tag should make this easier.

Comment: Was sixth of seven, beaten 20l, in an optional claimer behind Summary Judgment, three weeks ago; a winner over C&D; useful in this grade; now eased in the grades (in for $5k); more than capable if on song so rates a likely contender.

Comment: Stumbled at the start when beaten 10l (fourth of six) 41 days ago at Parx in a claimer; grade looks suitable and is a multiple distance winner (all wins at this trip); drops to a $5k tag; a likely player.

Summary Judgment

Jockey: Madison Olver Trainer: Silvino Ramirez Age/Wt: 7/8-9 F: 81353

Comment: Admirable career strike-rate (13 from 46 to date); finished third but wasn't beaten too far (8l) over 1m here (optional claimer) last week; calmer waters here (in for $5k, $12.5k tag last time); easy to see her making an impression as best speed figure over the past year reads well comparatively.

Oscar Gaze

Comment: Fair effort (beaten 2l) in a claimer when ahead of Wait A Sec (sloppy track, Delaware Park) last month; normally pretty consistent; a winner over this C&D; may find this lower level more suitable (in for $5k).
