SM MY VALENTINE (5) did a good job last start to finish third in stakes class at this track (Dirt) over 320m, beaten one length. That run should have him rock-hard fit now. Has a strong record here at this journey with two wins from six starts. Likely to feature. POLITICIAN V (2) is a three-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Jesus Nunez yard. Hasn't raced since finishing sixth at Group 1 level at Lone Star Park (Dirt) ten weeks ago. Not seen at the trials but looks nicely placed. Leading prospect. CATTAIL COAST (6) missed the frame last time when sixth at this track. Prior to that had been in the money on two consecutive occasions. Has a win and five minor placings at this journey from nine starts and is one of the prime contenders. HOCKRODD (3) resumed six weeks ago over 320m at this track and was only beaten 1.5 lengths into fourth. Strips fitter and can figure in the finish.
