NINO DEL SUR (7) is coming along nicely this prep, scoring by more than a length last start over 1000m at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. IRON STAR (9) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fifth and beaten 3 lengths over 1000m at this track. Has a high cruising speed. Among the leading chances. SPIRIT ROAD (2) scored last start at this track to make it three wins from three starts this campaign. This is his optimum trip with four wins from seven starts and has to be included. ROJO JAMAS (1) jumped from a wide alley last start and finished a sound fifth over this track and distance. Has a much better draw this time, and can figure in the top 3 here.
