LUCKIES JOY (1) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when sixth, beaten 4 lengths, at HORSESHOE INDIANAPOLIS Turf (Turf) over 1006m. The engagement of Jose Ramos Gutierrez is a positive move. Finds a nice race and can bounce back. GIMMEETHREESTEPS (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1106m at this track, beaten 5 lengths into fifth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. CHIRINGO (2) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. OPTIMAL COURAGE (7) has not won for a long while. Last raced on August 24 when beaten 11 lengths into fifth at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Has the class to take care of this field.
