RACE DAY REBAL (6) did a great job to score by a nose over this course and distance when resuming from a lay-off last time out. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. EASY BIG BOY (2) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on 08/01/2025, finishing eighth and beaten 12 lengths over 6½f at Delta Downs (Dirt). Has switched to the Tim Dixon yard. One of the genuine hopes in the race. DESOTO'S WAR (5) is knocking on the door after just missing last time over 1m at this track (Dirt). Another big run expected. QUARTER RAT (9) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1m at this track. Finds a nice race and can play a big role again.
