WAR OFFICER (1) improved sharply on his ninth two starts back at Aqueduct (Turf) with a win as favourite over 1m at this track (Synthetic) two weeks ago, getting home by 1. 5 lengths after being prominent at the corner after he gave away a big start on the bend. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to figure in the finish. VIRTUOSITY (7) got off the mark over 5f at Colonial Downs (Turf) last start, scoring by 0. 1 lengths. Nicely placed to double the win tally. PEDRO NUNES (3) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1. 75 lengths from the winner in third over 6f at Delaware Park after being in the firing line on the corner. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. SCHNITTKER (6) ran below expectations last time at this track (Synthetic) over 6f, finishing fourth and beaten 2. 5 lengths. Record at this track is strong. Must be respected.
