THIRD CITY (2) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing seventh and beaten 18 lengths starting at 7/2. Has the ability to produce a better result. TETCHED (4) built on a nice second two starts back at this track (Dirt) with a win over 1m1/4f at this track (Dirt) two weeks ago, getting home by 1. 3 lengths. Luis Raul Rivera scored on him last time and retains the mount. Taking on a better line-up this time but he deserves plenty of thought. WHY NOT ME (6) has not won for a long while. Last raced on October 21 when beaten 7 lengths into fourth at Presque Isle Downs (Synthetic) over 1m1/2f. Has the class to figure prominently. KYKEON (5) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time over 1m at this track (Dirt). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
