(# 4) COPY THAT - Good tries at the Spa despite drawing poorly in both (10 & 12 posts). No bad draw today and he should have no excuses for not running well in here. Third off the layoff, good post and correct surface. Think the only one with as good a shot is the No. 6.

(# 6) Vim and Vigor - Colt by Stephen Got Even has been given the past two months off by trainer Jimmy Jerkens. $240,000 yearling purchase has shown just enough to keep the hopes up. Working well for the return, this 1 1/8 mile event should be right "up his alley. Goes into a claimer for the first time.

(# 10) Hedge Fund - Looks set up well for some type of theft attempt. Has shown speed in several then was laid-up for almost two months. Returned in a sprint now is sent long and to the grass. Going on five-years-old so time is running out on him. Barn has good percentages in the relevant categories.

(#'s 7 and 9) Surf Academy and Sultry Approval - Would use these two runners in exacta boxes with the top two. More underneath than on-top.
