A LOT OF VERVE (5) First run back from a break. Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last time at Emerald Downs. Could pose a threat and expected to go very close. LEVON (4) Gave them a lesson when winning by 4L last start at Albuquerque Downs. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Good chance in this event. MY CAIRO KID (3) Fresh after a break. Gave away some ground when 4th last run at Canterbury Park. Expecting improvement here. First race for a new trainer. Should muster plenty of early speed. Serious contender. SPIRITIST (1) Outpaced some runners late when 5th last time at Santa Anita and can save some energy from the draw. Displays very good finishing speed. Include in chances
