CARNIVAL ROCK (2) showed good early dash last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing one length away in second over 1207m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). Well-placed and will take catching. WE NEED A FAVOR (4) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4 lengths when fourth over 1609m at Oaklawn Park three-and-a-half weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Finds the right race this time and can find winning form. PICARO (6) resumes from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Has filled a minor placing at both first-up runs. Opened last prep with a second over 1207m at this track. Worth including. FAST TALKIN MAN (1) scored last start at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. In the mix.
