WARRING THUNDER (5) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on January 3, finishing eighth and beaten 7 lengths over 1207m at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). One of the genuine hopes in the race. FIRST ACT (1) turned in a modest performance when third last start over 1207m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being prominent at the turn. That followed a good first-up win at this track. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is up to the task. CAMDEN HILLS (2) lines up on the back of a 7 length fourth over 1207m at this track. Capable of playing a big role. PERIPOLI (4) showed good speed here last time over 1207m until tiring late and finishing fourth, beaten 10 lengths. The addition of blinkers should see a bold run.
