(# 7) HERE TO PLEASE - Contessa runner moves outside which should be good for his close-up stalking tactics. He drops a bit in class for this and it's actually the lowest level he has raced. He comes along with a nice work at Aqueduct on June 1 for this.

(# 5) Irish Brian - Hit a new figure top in his first race ever at Belmont. Didn't beat much that day but did a professional job. One turn miles at Gulfstream are like the ones here, and he did fine in two of those in Florida.

(# 2) Elninodemisojos - Third start since Levine claimed runner in Florida last March. He's coming into this on a drop, and second off a freshening for the trainer. "Fronts" went on off the layoff and he didn't run particularly well. Drop is a logical one.

(# 8) Maurice Ave. - Figures are light, but he does bring speed to the contest. Turf sprint may have him really sharp for return to dirt. Also takes a drop for this. Dangerous if left alone for too long.
