Verdict: ENNIS TOWN gets the vote. He can take advantage of the likely hectic pace up front and can turn around placings with Gung Ho from last time they met.

Davyjonz

Jockey: Horacio Karamanos Trainer: Robin Graham Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 5/523-

Comment: Has shown some recent improvement; fair effort (beaten just over 4l) in a maiden claimer last March; not seen for some time now.

Built By Khozan

Jockey: Weston Hamilton Trainer: Hugh McMahon Age/Wt: 3/8-7 F: 26444

Comment: Not beaten that far in fourth (6l) five weeks ago at Penn National in a maiden special weight; produced several respectable runs lately; yet to open his account after eight starts; meeting some horses in good form and easy enough to take on.

Karma's Inthehouse

Jockey: Tais Lyapustina Trainer: Diana McClure Age/Wt: 5/9-0 F: 3-4332

Comment: Ran encouragingly when 2l runner-up 16 days ago in a maiden claimer; shown recent signs of improvement but still winless and defeats stacking up (ten on the bounce); unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role as not in the habit of winning recently.

Gung Ho

Jockey: Victor Carrasco Trainer: Arnaud Delacour Age/Wt: 3/8-7 F: 5

Comment: Respectable debut effort (beaten 7l) over 6f (11-1) last month at Pimlico (bumped); More Than Ready gets winners on the turf; has to be taken seriously as appeals from a breeding angle.

Sam The Sham

Comment: From the same family as L'indiscret, a winner over 1m½f; sire gets turf winners; may not be cherry ripe as debutants from this stable can need the run; others look more obvious on paper; requires market confidence to make him of interest.

Comment: Could not manage better than fifth last March in an allowance optional claimer; has winning C&D form to her name; hails from a good stable; long absence to overcome; needs to be respected if excused most recent run as achieved maiden claimer success two runs back and shown she can get her head in front.

Feel The Bolt

Jockey: Angel Cruz Trainer: David Mohan Age/Wt: 3/8-3 F: 46-372

Comment: Respectable effort to finish second in a maiden claimer when dropped down to this distance two weeks ago; losing run totals nine but has found improvement of late; higher claiming tag here so class rise to contend with; should not be far away.

Comment: Finished just behind Feel The Bolt when third two weeks ago in a maiden claimer; not had much racing - third outing here; deeper waters here (in for $16k here, $12.5k tag last time); needs to be respected.

Lorraine's Way

Jockey: Alberto Delgado Trainer: Alison Delgado Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 778-2

Comment: Creditable effort (went off 6-1) to finish runner-up at Pimlico on her debut for new trainer (muddy track) three weeks ago in a maiden claimer; yet to win in ten starts but appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; up in class (in for $20k); should get involved if confirming promise shown last time.

Comment: Without a win after ten attempts; bumped at the start in a maiden claimer when beaten 16l (fourth of six) last Sunday; in for a $12.5k tag so down in class ($16k last time); could be involved.

Watch Out World

Jockey: Ismerio Villalobos Trainer: Kerry Hohlbein Age/Wt: 4/9-0 F: 62-546

Comment: Five-race maiden but has managed to finish third; behind several of these over 5f at Pimlico (maiden claimer, sloppy track) when finishing last of eight three weeks ago; may find this lower level more suitable (in for $12.5k); unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

Jockey: Ismerio Villalobos Trainer: Jr Benjamin Feliciano, Age/Wt: 3/8-7 F: 4-8429

Comment: Beaten ninth of 11 in a maiden claimer 44 days ago when just behind Preacha Meyers; has arguably shown improved form the last twice; drops to a $25k tag from $45k; need to draw a line through his last run, but was second two starts back; no surprise to see him go well.

Jockey: Sheldon Russell Trainer: Brittany Russell Age/Wt: 3/8-7

Comment: Course debutants for this trainer have to be taken seriously; sire does get winners on the turf; sole newcomer in the field; related to multiple race winner Deshambeau (4½f-1m); warrants plenty of respect with stable in good nick and his sire is a speed influence.

Triple Nickles

Comment: Beaten on his debut at Parx at 11-2 last month; sire does get winners on the turf; nicely bred (by Midnight Lute); in the mix as has a pedigree which suggests there is more to come and he now drops into a maiden claimer for the first time.
