(# 5) THUNDER MESA - Dont know why he ran so poorly last time out. Could have been the two turn nature of race or maybe he disliked blinkers ( 1st time on). Any way he wheels back quickly to a distance that he has been competitive at. Trainer also goes to Cris Emigh here and he has been aboard for some of his better tries.

(# 1) Mr. Zeal - Owns some speed and the rail but he has been beaten many times already at both Hoosier and Fonner Parks.

(# 8) Just Josh - Another who comes by way of Hoosier and Fonner Park. Stalker draws well for this and the extra 1/2 furlong of this race may help him out.

(# 3) Prince Elias - Steady series of works on tab for 4yr.old returning off of 1 and 1/2 year abscence. Will probably try and make the top but the rail horse has recency on him.
