JET OFF (6) remains a maiden after eight runs. Was one of the favoured runners last time but after being in the firing line on the turn could only manage to finish sixth over 6f at Turfway Park (Synthetic). This offers him a great chance of breaking through. HARD CIRCLE (4) started at 9/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 12 lengths at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) over 6f. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is right in contention. DAW SAMAA (3) finished sixth over 6f at Aqueduct (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on February 21. Has to be respected. TWO DUCKS (7) is yet to break through after seven starts. Last time out was fifth, beaten 15 lengths, over 6½f at Aqueduct (Dirt). Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Not to be discounted.
