CANYA TALK NOW (2) recorded his 5th career win last time at this track, scoring by 1.1 lengths (23.73). Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. In great recent form and expected to measure up again. LOCHINVAR THOR (5) was impressive last start despite finishing second, recording a convincing 23.81 to place behind CANYA TALK NOW and clocking a new PB this course and distance. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. SPECIAL ENVOY (4) is building an impressive record and ran one of the quickest times of the card latest with an impressive 4.5 lengths win (23.84) at this track. Superior out of the boxes and will be in the firing line early. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Leading chance again. CANYA KEEP UP (1) will have admirers after placing last time out.
