#6 ASTONISHING TWEET (3-1) easily went all the way in his last two local starts at this distance vs. local low level claiming foes. The win type went 6-for-13 last year and should make his presence felt throughout.   

#4 Warrior’s Lullaby (5-2) is sharp and versatile, and he loves to win races. He captured his last three local starts at this distance and figures to battle hard throughout for high percentage connections.  

#2 Bigshot Lacewell (7-2) cuts way back in distance and has a shot to pick up the pieces. He hit the board in half of his eight starts at six panels. 

#5 Out of Patience (6-1) is a sharp nine-year-old gelding with a decent late kick. He needed every bit of the six and one-half furlong distance in his local May 6 victory at even money, and a minor award might be his limit.
