RIVERSIDE (4) showed good early dash when resuming last start and held on well to finish 2. 5 lengths back in third over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. WOOD CEILING (6) last appeared five weeks ago over 6½f at this track when he finished third. This is his first run for the Frank Lucarelli stable. Should be thereabouts. KATAR (7) hasn't raced since finishing fourth over 5f at Canterbury Park Turf (Turf) on August 31 and has since switched trainers. Generally runs well when fresh with three wins and one minor placings from four runs. Capable of taking this out. LONESOME BOY (5) lines up for the first time since June 22. Looking to emulate his win at Parx to kick off the last campaign. Has switched to the Robert Baze stable. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
