HEATS HERO (5) returns from a lay-off of 12 weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fifth over 1m at Remington Park (Turf). Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will play a major role. AWOL (2) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at Remington Park (Dirt) over 1m, beaten 0. 3 lengths. Big chance to score. WARTANK (4) is yet to break through in eight runs. Finished sixth at his last appearance over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on November 30 after he got a long way back in the run. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. BOLT'S TREASURE (6) resumes. After filling a minor placing at his last appearance at Thistledown (Dirt) over 1m on October 15. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
