GETHSEMANE (6) was safely held when third last time out over 1710m at this track, beaten 6 lengths after being prominent at the bend. That followed a win at Oaklawn Park at the previous outing. Finds a more suitable contest and can return to winning ways. SO SPECIAL (2) comes here off a break of five months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1609m at Ellis Park Turf. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. POLITICS (5) returned from a spell seven weeks ago when he was beaten 6 lengths into fifth over 1609m at Turfway Park. Stepping up a level this time but with added fitness he is one of the key runners. JETER (4) comes here following a win over 1609m at Gulfstream Park two months ago, getting home by 10 lengths. One of the better chances.
