POLITICS (1) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Taking on a better line-up this time but he cannot be overlooked. SURFIN' M (8) proved too strong two runs ago at Churchill Downs. Couldn't follow that up last time out when sixth over 1609m at this track, beaten 40 lengths. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is a major player. REFINED DESIGN (3) has returned in good order this campaign. Ran well but found a couple better last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt) after registering his maiden win first-up the run before. In good form and one of the chances. HUTCHINSON (4) was responsible for a better run last start, beaten 4 lengths into fourth over 1609m at this track. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
