NEW YORK NEW YORK (3) was beaten just 0.3 lengths last start when second in a small field over 1106m at this track (Synthetic) at the first run of the campaign. Will be fitter for that run, should be in the finish again. MESSAGEFROMTHEKING (1) has been in the placings at his last two appearances, finishing second over 1006m at this track (Synthetic) most recently. Key runner who should feature in the finish. SMOKIN JACK FLASH (9) did little and finished 9 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1106m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fifth at this track the run before. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. ROCKINGHAM JOE (2) settled well back and never threatened when ninth over 1609m at Tampa Bay Downs (Turf) last time out. Best figures measure up nicely. Solid top-three prospects.
