KHALI J (2) resumes from a spell of three-and-a-half months after closing off last preparation with three consecutive minor placings. Erik Barbaran who has two wins when partnering stays on. Expecting a bold showing. TROTTER (3) has returned in good order this preparation. Opened with a second at this track (Dirt) two starts back then scored by half a length as public elect last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. NEBLINA (1) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Must be included among the main hopes. MARY KATHERINE (7) never got into the race when seventh last time at Presque Isle Downs (Synthetic) but drops in weight for this. Rates well in this and can do much better.
