Comment: Appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs and showing consistent form; third but beaten just 1½l when 2-5 in a maiden special weight at Saratoga in September; has had some time off; latest effort was encouraging so has a great chance.

Comment: Has shown some recent improvement; beaten into runner-up when 13-8 in front of ST Pete's Passion (sloppy track) three weeks ago in a maiden special weight; is a player if backing up last run and jockey does well from inner gates here.

Comment: Last of five in a claimer at Penn National last month, behind Majestic Tiger; admirable career strike-rate (five from 22 to date); respected as sights are lowered a bit reflected by lower claiming tag.

Comment: Could be at the extent of his ability and form has been a bit mixed lately; unable to land a blow in eighth in a claimer upped to 1m½f last month; up in class (in for $15k here, $5k tag last time); a big ask.

Comment: Narrow scorer in an optional claimer (Laurel Park) in February; operating at a lower level than at his peak and has managed 14 wins from 34 career runs; drops to a $20k tag from $30k; trainer is ticking along nicely; major player as he has won after a similar break before.

Comment: No apparent fluke about his 18-1 success (by just under 3l) two weeks ago in an allowance race; smart performer at one stage; drops in trip.

Fluid Situation

Jockey: Samy Camacho Trainer: J Terranova Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 4-633

7/2

Comment: A proven winner with a wins-runs record of 5-23; producing solid form figures; minor honours in an allowance optional claimer in March (12-5) at Tampa Bay Downs dropped back in distance; now looks to be past his prime and looks risky.

Jockey: John Hiraldo Trainer: Jonathanie Badillo Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 877766

25/1

Comment: Not beaten that far in sixth (8l, Monmouth Park) last month in a claimer; will need to improve upon some moderate recent runs and slumped a bit since winning a claimer at Colonial Downs in August; deeper waters here (in for $32k here, $14k tag last time); others appeal more in what appears to be a competitive contest.

Jockey: Samuel Marin Trainer: III Claude McGaughey Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 435-

Comment: Behind Vamos Viejo when beaten 5½l (fifth of eight, Laurel Park) in October in an allowance optional claimer; has managed three wins from 14 career runs; returns from a layoff; can be on the premises as sights are lowered a bit reflected by lower claiming tag and jockey's C&D record from low draws is useful.

Doctor Jeff

Jockey: Gabriel Maldonado Trainer: Carlos David Age/Wt: 6/8-8 F: 2-140

Comment: Held when tenth beaten 8l upped to 1m (Gulfstream Park) in March in a stakes; better than this level in his pomp and record shows he knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 6-22); easy to see him making an impression as return to this trip should be in his favour and drop into claiming grade should help.

Comment: Likes this combination of C&D; didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Charles Town (beaten 8l) in an allowance optional claimer in November; now moved up in the grades (in for $32k); returns from an absence here; facing a testing assignment and may have to settle for supporting role at best.

Comment: Produced a string of consistent efforts; finished fifth but subsequently promoted to fourth in a claimer (sloppy track) on her first start for this trainer last month; looks likely to go well if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success.
