GRANDE TORTUGON (2) was in the money two starts back at Turfway Park but was unable to repeat the effort last time when seventh, beaten 6 lengths, at Turfway Park (Synthetic) over 5f. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is sure to be prominent. GATES OF HEAVEN (3) returns from a break of four-and-a-half months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a second over 6f at this track. Nicely placed to kick off another successful campaign. ALABAMA SLAMMER (6) finished seventh over 1m at Turf Paradise (Turf) at his most recent appearance on December 28. Comes here with definite top-three claims. BOLD ADVENTURE (1) finished third two runs back at Turfway Park (Synthetic) then improved last time out to score by 1.5 lengths over 5f at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Finds a suitable race and can play a major role.
