DELVECCHIO (5) turned in a handy position before finishing second last start over 1106m at this track, beaten half a length. Likely improver with strong prospects. MISTER MCLEAN (3) finished 3 lengths behind the winner in fourth over 1006m at Harrah's Columbus Nebraska (Dirt) last start after lifting strongly to score when fresh from a spell two runs back. Should park just off the speed. Leading contender. SHOCKING MALICE (1) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 17 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 1207m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. RICK'S DANCER (4) has not won for a long while. Last raced on September 23 when beaten 14 lengths into sixth at this track over 1509m. Best figures measure up nicely. Capable of a strong performance.
