2 – RELIC HUNTER – last race in April would be good enough to win this one, works getting ready are OK

2 – CUSTOM BOBBY’S – TLRSP#, some nice works since last race on Sept 3^rd, won last off the bench with ease

10 – GOLD PUNCH – plenty of early pop, been off since March, good works, question is can go w2w or will he fade at the wire

1 – EDDIE’S HUMOR – rides the high win rate rail, track is likely to be wet 2/1-1-0 –

3 – SURVEILLANCE – Left Arrow Horse with better early fractions last out, FG 2/2-0-0

6 – CARRIBEAN CAPER – hard to argue with 6/5-0-0 lifetime record, lone miss was last out but FG works says she’ll be sharp here
