ESTILO MAGICO (2) started at $4.90 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths at Laurel (Dirt) over 1207m. Nicely placed to make amends. MON GATEAU (4) started this preparation with a win two runs ago. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1308m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. JESTER'S SONG (1) could only manage fourth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1308m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ABUELO PAPS (5) has switched yards since finishing seventh three weeks ago over 1308m at this track.
