PANUCO (1) finished 5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1207m at this track two weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. The one to beat in this line up. HELLO HOT ROD (2) is a eight-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Dick Cappellucci yard. Finished off last campaign with a win at Remington Park (Dirt) 12 weeks ago. Not seen at the trials but is in a nice race. Leading prospect. ROCKS A BLACK SUIT (5) was well fancied when resuming but found one better at this track (Dirt), finishing half a length adrift at the end of 1308m. Will appreciate the extra ground. Expected to be in the finish again. KIRBY DERBY (6) is resuming from a spell of ten weeks and having his first run for the Dick Cappellucci yard. Was in the placings when first-up from a spell last campaign at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino (Dirt) over 1609m.
