(# 7) WHEELOFFORTUNE - Wide journey in last cost him all chance at winning. Previous run was an excellent second-place finish. Sharp work on Nov. 2, and he resides in the gate outside of the other speed giving the rider some options. Good shot at the top prize.

(# 6) Lucky Greeley - Improved his performance when dropped into a claimer for the first time. Has a nice work since the last race and moves down slightly for this.

(# 1) What a Pal - Goes second off a layoff, and was beaten by several in here that day. May have needed the race badly as he hadn't run since last December. Should move forward and is a legitimate threat.

(# 3) Count Me Out - Good speed in return race with blinkers added to his equipment. Think he may regress a bit, and there is speed inside and outside of him in here.
