PURE CLASS (7) is a model of consistency with top-three finishes at his last five starts, most recently finishing third over 1408m at this track. Sure to measure up again. TO THE EASTSIDE (1) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished second at this track (Dirt) two starts back then got the job done by one length last time out over 1408m in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done again. JOHN HANCOCK (6) is returning from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Finished sixth at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1609m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Robert S Dibona. Sound top-three prospects. LIGHTNING TONES (9) returns from a spell. Finished seventh at this track and distance at his only appearance last prep 12 weeks ago. Sure to make his presence felt.
