AWESOME RUTA (2) is close to a win after a sequence of strong results, the latest when third over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Ready to find winning form. FORTHELONGHAUL (6) built on a nice second two starts back at Arapahoe Park (Dirt) with success as public elect over 1207m at Arapahoe Park (Dirt) three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by a nose. Meeting a tougher field but on current form he is right in contention. JUSTICE DEPARTMENT (9) made progress last time out, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1673m at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. ORE MINE (8) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish second over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Rene Diaz sticks. Among the top-three hopes.
