OREGON COUNTY (6) has put together a couple of wins at this course, the latest on March 15 over 6½f when he got home by 2.5 lengths. Winning rider Kevin Roman retains the mount. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. PREACHER (9) sat just off the speed and fought on well to finish second when resuming last start at this course and distance. Among the winning hopes. KNIGHTED (2) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 6½f at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. GOLD CRUSHER (3) returns from a layoff of five months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 1m at North Dakota Horse Park. One to consider.
