CERTIFIED LOVERBOY (1) was in the money two starts back at Aqueduct but was unable to repeat the effort last time when sixth, beaten 10 lengths, at Aqueduct (Dirt) over 1m. Finds a more suitable contest and can turn things around. SPOTAFREEONE (5) was well held over 7f at Listed level at this track (Dirt) last time out. Arnaldo Bocachica who has scored on him five times retains the mount. Expecting a bold showing. PHANTOM SPEED (3) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 4 lengths back in second over 1m1f in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. IN THE DANCE (7) was far too good when resuming last start when he scored by 4 lengths over 1m at this track (Dirt). Fitter for that last hitout and he can measure up again.
