MERICA'S BACK (3) was always forward and boxed on to finish third over 6f at this track (Dirt) last time. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Best figures should see him run well. ROOFER (2) finds it hard to win with just one success from 15 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 6f at this track. Best figures measure up nicely. Makes plenty of appeal. FIREBALLIN (4) resumes. After filling a minor placing at his last appearance at this track (Dirt) over 6½f on June 28. Definite top-three chance. DON LUIS (8) opened this prep three-and-a-half weeks ago and scored over 6½f at this track, getting home by 0. 8 lengths. One of the better chances.
