(# 3) MARQUET REALITY - Trainer W. Bret Calhoun has proven deadly when he drops his horses into maiden claimers. This colt showed big speed at Remington Park, and was also well supported at the betting windows. Son of "Marquetry" has a trio of works over the local dirt, and it looks like all systems are a go.

(# 9) Sgt. Joe - Set the pace last out in his first attempt in a maiden claimer. Started his career in a pair of MSW races and it was encouragong to see him improve on the drop. Trainer Dave Carroll always has some winners during this meet.

(# 4) Droll - Claiborne home-bred is now with Al stall after starting his career in the barn of Hall of Famer Bill Mott. Colt has done well in the mornings, but has yet to transfer his speed to the afternoon.
