LEBOWSKI (6) went fast early and went on to score by 1.3 lengths last time out over 1710m at this track (Turf). In a suitable race and can play a major role. MENDELSSOHN JOY (8) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 2213m at Canterbury Park Turf (Turf) after being in the firing line all the way. Will need a good ride from Angeles Geovanni Franko off the awkward draw. Must raise the bar but this looks well within his grasp. CASA CIELO (1) started at $8.60 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 4.5 lengths at this track (Turf) over 1509m. Likely improver with strong prospects. BENANDONNER (7) was last at the races when he finished third over 1609m at Lone Star Park (Dirt) on June 5. Has recorded two wins when first up from a break. Sure to make his presence felt.
