FLEET OF FLAGS (5) is back from a lay-off of seven months. Raced once last campaign and finished third over 5½f at Prairie Meadows (Dirt). Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will play a major role. FRISCO (2) last appeared when he failed to finish on July 18 at North Dakota Horse Park. Has switched to the Dru Hall stable. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. FACTORY DRIVE (7) is back after a break of five-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 6f at Santa Anita. Now under the care of new trainer Vann Belvoir. Definite top-three chance. BIG JIMMY (8) is coming off a last-start eighth, beaten 17 lengths, over 6½f at this track. Significant rider change. This sets up nicely.
