FAIR HOPE (3) went forward last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt) and held on well for third, beaten 7 lengths. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. PROPS (2) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 3 lengths over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Winning rider Erik Asmussen stays aboard and he is one of the main chances. LAZY Y GIRVIN (5) improved last start to finish second over 1308m at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Finds the right race this time and can take the next step and salute. DEPOSIT INSURANCE (6) resumes from a spell of five months and is having his first outing under new trainer Steven Asmussen. Finished sixth at Will Rogers Downs (Dirt) over 1207m at the opening run last time in work.
