Race 3: Krewe Chief (#2)

• Was extremely wide around both turns last time, costing him his best chance.
• Should appreciate the stretch-out, since he’s run well going this distance before.
• Gets a needed drop in class since he’s just not capable of competing at the N2X level.

Race 8: Bulletin (#7)

• May have run back too soon in the William Walker off his big return effort at Keeneland.

Race 9: Mo Gotcha (#1)

• Looks and runs like a horse who is supposed to relish this 9-furlong distance.
• Was compromised by a wide trip against a rail bias two back.
