BREAK THE CHAINS (6) is back at the races for the first time since November 6. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 6½f at this track. Rates highly and should take some beating. NAY'S ONLY ONE (3) finished just 0. 8 lengths from the winner in second last start over 6½f at this track (Dirt) after racing on the speed. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HAWKSTONE (5) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fifth at Laurel (Dirt) over 5½f. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. EL MAYO (7) proved too strong two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when second over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 3 lengths. In the mix.
