MCGINNIS (4) is yet to break through after six career starts. Could only manage to finish fourth last time out over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf) following a minor placing at this track (Turf) when fresh from a lay-off the run prior. Well placed this line-up and might be his day. ROYAL IRISH (2) is still a maiden after 10 starts. Managed to fill a minor placing at this track (Turf) two starts back before finishing fifth over 1m1/2f at Fairgrounds (Dirt) last time. Should be in the mix. MAX S (3) settled well back last start and never threatened when 34 lengths from the winner in fourth over 1m1/4f at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ZUN REYDER (5) finished 12 lengths from the winner in fifth last time out over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf) on January 4. Deserves another chance.
