MCKINSENSE (2) was in commission last time out and finished one length from the winner in second over 1207m at this track. Should be poised just off the lead. Will prove tough to beat. TAKE THE RAIL (5) is yet to break through in four runs. Finished sixth at his last appearance over 1609m at this track (Dirt) on September 10. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. MCBRIDGE (3) was never in contention when 25 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1408m at Evangeline Downs last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Evangeline Downs Turf the run before. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. LA LENGUA (9) is a four-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Travis Swan Murphy barn. Finished off last campaign with a fifth at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) ten months ago. Not seen at the trials but looks well placed. Can run a bold race.
