DO IT FOR MICHAEL (2) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing second over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time out. Blinkers added so the stable might have him peaking today. IRISH HERO (1) last appeared seven weeks ago over 1207m at this track when he finished eighth. This is his first run for the Jonathan Maldonado stable. In the mix despite the unknowns. RIVER DOG (5) was well found in the betting last time out but could only manage to finish sixth over 1207m at Penn National (Dirt) in a disappointing performance. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. SHERIFF RONNIE (6) lines up on the back of a 7 length fourth over 1207m at this track. Everything points to a big run.
