PUFF'SMAGICDRAGON (8) was in a different class last time, sitting just off the speed before letting down impressively for a 4 length win at this track (Dirt) over 1609m. Erik Barbaran who has scored on him five times retains the mount. Bold showing expected. HEMP HEAVEN (3) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when he was in contention on the corner before being beaten 4 lengths into fourth over 1609m at Churchill Downs. Won't find this as tough so he is a leading contender. RHUMJAR (2) was in contention on the corner and progressed nicely last start to finish a close third over 1710m at Charles Town after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has the talent to take care of this field. GENERAL ISSUE (1) has not appeared since he finished fourth over 1673m at Hawthorne (Dirt) on October 19. Has switched to the Sergio Donjuan yard. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
