ROCKIN HIS SOX OFF (3) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at Remington Park (Dirt) over 1408m after being in contention all the way. Faces an easier assignment so he is sure to prove hard to beat. EXPENSIVE GAME (6) is a three-start maiden who is close to a win following two recent minor placings, the latest when second over 1408m at Remington Park (Dirt). Sure to be prominent. EL PROTONICO (4) was well supported last time over 1207m at Remington Park (Dirt) but could only manage third after being well positioned to strike on the turn. Shapes as one to consider. PALACE ROCK (1) is back after a break of four months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing third at his latest appearance over 1609m at Prairie Meadows (Dirt). Has ability and must be included in calculations.
