(# 4) PRORUNNER - Goes third off a layoff and also switches surfaces. Proven against tougher in the past, he has only run twice on the grass, but should handle the infield based on his breeding. Looks like a handful.

(# 2) Gold Bankers Gold - Probable favorite is going for his fourth win in a row, including a grass win here on Oct. 6. Proven runner and winner is going for his 15th lifetime victory. Tough if he repeats any of his last three.

(# 7) Plenty of Heat - Makes his first start since early August after having run eight times in '07 up to that point. Owns five lifetime wins on the grass, including three on this surface. Working well for the return.

(# 6) Ragin Nono - Has one start on the grass, and it produced a win on this infield. Ran well at Emerald Downs this spring and summer on the dirt. Working well for his first race since Aug. 6.
