Bad Little Beast

Jockey: Andrew Ramgeet Trainer: Michelle Winters Age/Wt: 8/8-11 F: 623

Comment: Form has an up and down look to it and possible that there's no more in the locker; beaten a fair way when fifth at Thistledown 29 days ago in a claimer; claiming value now drops to $5k; may have to settle for supporting role as no longer in his pomp.

Sanpirodu

Jockey: Willie Martinez Trainer: Gerald Brooks Age/Wt: 4/8-11 F: 768102

Comment: Solid run when second at 10-1 in a claimer (dropped to this trip) a week ago; a winner over C&D; has to be respected.

Samurai Legacy

Jockey: Israel Rodriguez Trainer: Michael Pappada Age/Wt: 9/8-13 F: 472-21

Comment: A prolific winner over this C&D; quick away to lead from a wide draw here over 6½f (claimer) last month; his best looks to be behind him and looks risky.

Jockey: Pablo Morales Trainer: Jay Bernardini Age/Wt: 8/8-11 F: 27

Comment: Beaten 12l in seventh last month upped to 1m½f in a claimer; four-time winner within the resume (from 6f-1m½f) and this is his grade; should be thereabouts despite defeat last time as was second two runs back.

The Sinner Is You

Jockey: Martina Rojas Trainer: Murray Rojas Age/Wt: 9/8-11 F: 32-134

Comment: Record over this course and distance is six wins from 18 runs; not beaten too far when fourth of five (not far behind Sanpirodu) last Monday in a claimer; has proven capable of posting bigger numbers than these rivals so looks a big player.

Tapsolution

Jockey: Brandon Tapara Trainer: Jay Bernardini Age/Wt: 8/8-11 F: 422442

Comment: Close up second in a claimer at Mountaineer Park three weeks ago; no longer appears to be improving and last C&D win was nine attempts back; now moved up in the grades (in for $5k); hard enough to fancy as not in the habit of winning recently.

Irish Stone

Jockey: Brooke Bays Trainer: W Bourke Age/Wt: 4/8-4 F: 1-9061

Comment: Scored by 1l upped to 1m½f last month in a claimer; has chalked up two wins from his last five; could go close as recent win points to him being able to handle class rise and his speed figure last time suggests he can handle the tag rise.

Grounded

Jockey: Willie Martinez Trainer: Scooter Davis Age/Wt: 7/8-13 F: 15-211

Comment: Enhanced C&D record to nine wins from 14 two weeks ago with a 4½l success; very smart performer at his peak and out to complete a hat-trick; holds leading claims.

Jockey: Pablo Morales Trainer: Tim Girten Age/Wt: 5/8-11 F: 1-3744

Comment: Respectable effort in defeat (beaten just under 3l, Gulfstream Park) last month in an allowance optional claimer; has won here; has proven competitive in a race of this nature; shown he can get his head in front so cannot be ignored.

Comment: Unbeaten at this course after two runs; unbeaten at this C&D after two runs; recorded second C&D win last month; higher claiming tag here so class rise to contend with; step up to allowance company will make life tougher so others are preferred.

Jockey: Martina Rojas Trainer: Murray Rojas Age/Wt: 3/8-8

Comment: Related to multiple race winner Charcoal (5f-1m); makes competitive race debut; remains to be seen whether he'll be clued up enough to get off the mark - best watched unless the market says otherwise.

Starship Legacy

Jockey: Mike Allen Trainer: John Fennessy Age/Wt: 5/8-8 F: 64

Comment: Stepped up on his last two starts; better was expected when beaten 5l in a maiden claimer five weeks ago; latest performance on the clock offers hope he can cope with higher tag so could take plenty of beating.

Truth And Honesty

Comment: Finished in front of Yardman and Lightning Charlie when beaten 5l into runner-up at 11-1 16 days ago in a claimer; successful three times from 29 career starts (5f-1m½f) but may have reached limits of his ability; makes limited appeal as he never really looked like winning last time.

Lightning Charlie

Jockey: Gaddiel Martinez Trainer: Randall Russell Age/Wt: 6/8-11 F: 417-26

Comment: Beaten 10l just behind Truth And Honesty and Yardman in runner-up and third last month when finishing last of six in a claimer; this is his grade and one-time useful operator; in the mix if replicating the best of his form.

Jockey: Scott Spieth Trainer: Linda Rice Age/Wt: 4/8-11 F: -687

Comment: First-time blinkers no help (Belmont At The Big A) when dropped back to 6f last month in an optional claimer; calmer waters here (in for $25k, $50k tag last time); should prove competitive if replicating best previous efforts and the step up in trip is a plus.
