(# 8) CRUSINWITHCHARLIE - Cuts back from mile and one eighth around two turns to more agreeable one turn mile. Was claimed out of that race by William Campbell,and he keeps him at $15,000 level that he has proven more than capable at in the past. Draws well to make use of his fine speed and there is not a lot of that element signed on for this race.

(# 4) Calvin K. - Owns a good record at the distance(11 starts,2-3-2)and fine overall stats at Laurel( 15 starts,2-5-2). Has been at this level for quite sometime and it appears to agree with him. There are runners dropping in this race but most have poor recent form. Calvin is in racing shape.

(# 5) Passive Aggression - Strong closer needs assistance with pace scenario to help his cause. Lacks any early gear and may be last after the first call.

(#'s 1 and 2) Critical Acclaim and W and L - For small exacta bottoms.
