Jockey: Flavien Prat Trainer: R Rodriguez Age/Wt: 6/8-11 F: 5-145

Comment: Last of five at Aqueduct 17 days ago on debut for this handler in an allowance race; meeting some horses in good form and others appeal more.

Jockey: Lane Luzzi Trainer: Gina Giglio Age/Wt: 6/8-13 F: 23-21

Factually Correct

Jockey: Manuel Franco Trainer: Michelle Nevin Age/Wt: 5/8-11 F: 456-54

Comment: Fourth two months ago, only beaten 1½l, (Aqueduct) when separating a number of reopposing rivals in an allowance optional claimer; has scored over C&D; not always shown an awful lot since winning an allowance optional claimer at Belmont At The Big A 12 months ago; his best looks to be behind him and has questions to answer.

Jockey: Joel Rosario Trainer: Christophe Clement Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 9119-1

Capture The Flag

Jockey: John Velazquez Trainer: Todd Pletcher Age/Wt: 5/8-10 F: 5-218

Comment: Came home last 42 days ago in race won by Far Bridge (Gulfstream Park) in a Grade 3; has won at this course; a Grade 2 winner in February; has struck up a good partnership with this rider, who is back on board and trainer is ticking along nicely; it's a plus that he 's dropping back to 1m3f so rates a likely contender.

Comment: Split a number of these rivals three months ago (dropped back to this trip) when seventh of eight at Aqueduct in a claimer; a winner over C&D; possible that there's no more in the locker; calmer waters here (in for $10k, $15k tag last time); his best looks to be behind him and others are preferred.

Beachwalker

Jockey: Favinho Pino Villa Trainer: R Rodriguez Age/Wt: 8/8-6 F: 3-68665

Comment: Five wins to his name - from 7f to 1m2f; not beaten too far when fifth of eight 21 days ago at Aqueduct in a claimer; in for a $10k tag so down in class ($16k last time); probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Jockey: Ricardo Jr Santana Trainer: Juan Bernardini Age/Wt: 7/8-8 F: 136675

Comment: Winner of six starts (range of trips from 6f to 1m½f) but not always shown an awful lot since winning a claimer at Aqueduct in January; fifth of seven beaten 10l in a claimer (Aqueduct) last month when just behind Centavo; is passed over as now looks to be past his prime.

Comment: Useful in his prime; behind Empty Tomb when on the premises, finishing second at 11-2 last month (Aqueduct) in a claimer; may find this lower level more suitable (in for $10k); in with a shout if confirming promise shown last time.

Winter's Ghost

Jockey: Ruben Silvera Trainer: R Rodriguez Age/Wt: 6/8-6 F: 2-32

Comment: Perhaps looks to have to reached his ceiling and not seen the winners' enclosure for a while now (last win in 2023); fair form when 7l runner-up (Aqueduct) four months ago in a claimer; class dropper as runs for a $10k tag here; a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and may be vulnerable.

Empty Tomb

Jockey: Manuel Franco Trainer: Ilkay Kantarmaci Age/Wt: 9/8-8 F: 4-861

Comment: Wins-runs record of 9-38 and quality operator at his peak; successful by 2l last month at Aqueduct on his first start for this trainer in a claimer; very interesting as lower claiming tag worth taking at face value.

Verdict: VAN VOLLENHOVEN is hard to look beyond. He likes to stalk the early speed. Eighty Gold, Rhyton and Tango Tango should also be on the premises.

Rhyton

Jockey: Dylan Davis Trainer: Christophe Clement Age/Wt: 3/8-6

Comment: Sire gets turf winners; stable has a healthy record with newcomers; he has a shout with signs of encouragement in profile and his sire is a speed influence.

Dead Aim

Jockey: Joey Martinez Trainer: Mitchell Friedman Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 8-60

Comment: Tenth of 12 in a maiden claimer at Aqueduct two weeks ago upped to 1m½f; yet to get off the mark in three attempts (sixth his best finish); faces a tougher assignment this time so others more likely.

Comment: Signs of improvement on last two runs but yet to open his account after ten starts; bobbled at the start when beaten 17l in January at Aqueduct in a maiden claimer; concern he might not be fully tuned up so is passed over.

Comment: Makes competitive race debut; Unified gets winners on the turf; he should go close.

Comment: Held 11th of 12 but was making his first appearance running over this distance at Aqueduct last month; something to find with Eighty Gold (seventh) on that performance; sire does get winners on the turf; might be better for the experience although not hard to turn elsewhere.

Jockey: Ricardo Jr Santana Trainer: Mark Casse Age/Wt: 5/8-12 F: 4-09

Comment: Couldn't land a blow when ninth of 11 (Keeneland) upped to 1m4f last month in an allowance race; record shows he knows where the winning post is (wins-runs record of 4-11); a few rivals look in good form so unlikely to do better than a supporting role.

Unbridled Bomber

Jockey: Tba Rider Trainer: Oscar Barrera III Age/Wt: 6/8-12 F: 6-4

Comment: A while since he's been in the winners' enclosure (last win 18 months ago); a previous winner here; could not manage better than fourth (Aqueduct, sloppy track) three months ago in a claimer; in for a $75k tag here, up from $35k last time; steps up to allowance company.

Comment: Problems in the gate at the start at Aqueduct on first outing for new trainer when not beaten too far six weeks ago upped to 1m3f in a starter allowance; one-time useful performer and useful at this level; now tackles shorter distance.

Comment: This daughter of Twirling Candy looks the part on breeding and related to Grade 3 winner Litigate; off the mark at the fourth time of asking when an easy winner at Fair Grounds five months ago in a maiden special weight; one to consider given she has won after a layoff previously and this step up in class unlikely to hinder her.

Form
EW Places: 1/5 ODDS - 3 PLACES

Verdict: LORDSHIP is making just his second appearance and is less exposed than these rivals and scored a debut success 49 days ago. Vassimo, Captain Cook and Hill Road are also respected.

Vassimo

Jockey: Irad Ortiz Jr Trainer: Todd Pletcher Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 9-146

Comment: Has made an impressive start to his career with two wins from four starts; finished sixth, beaten 8l, in the Grade 2 Louisiana Derby (Fair Grounds) 49 days ago; could have less on his plate in this; can't be ruled out.

Happily Delusional

Jockey: Paco Lopez Trainer: Jr Louis Linder, Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 2-21424

Comment: Finished just behind Surfside Moon when fourth in a stakes posting a respectable effort at Laurel Park last month; this represents a step up in class so not an obvious one.

Surfside Moon

Jockey: Junior Alvarado Trainer: II James Lawrence, Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 56-23

Comment: Running consistently; was on the premises (third, beaten just over 3l) at Laurel Park three weeks ago in a stakes; others more persuasive as this looks tougher than last time.

Hill Road

Jockey: Flavien Prat Trainer: Chad Brown Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 173-3

Comment: Not disgraced in third (Tampa Bay Downs) two months ago on first outing for new trainer in a Grade 3; impressive strike-rate in Ireland, winning once from two runs; can be on the premises if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success.

Mcafee

Jockey: John Velazquez Trainer: Jr Richard Dutrow, Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 2-55

Comment: Related to Grade 1 winner Thorpedo Anna; close up behind Captain Cook when fifth at Aqueduct 35 days ago; drops in class; a likely player if duplicating the form of his most recent win.

Uncaged

Jockey: Kendrick Carmouche Trainer: Todd Pletcher Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 1-41

Comment: Winner of two of his three career starts; narrow success in an allowance optional claimer at Aqueduct (muddy track) upped to 1m last month; warrants respect despite having more on his plate.

First Pitch

Jockey: Jose Lezcano Trainer: Jose Jimenez Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 091

Comment: Has a nice pedigree (by Improbable); sprang 50-1 surprise in a maiden special weight at Aqueduct upped to this distance when opening his account at the third time of asking 48 days ago; facing a tougher assignment than last time, hard to fancy.

Captain Cook

Jockey: Manuel Franco Trainer: Jr Richard Dutrow, Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 61-14

Comment: A winner of a stakes in January and has made an impressive start to his career with two wins from four starts; finished fourth, beaten 7l, in the Grade 2 Wood Memorial at Aqueduct last month; this might be easier; capable of making an impact.

Brereton's Baytown

Jockey: Angel Serpa Trainer: Paul McEntee Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 4185

Comment: Found life tough when 18l back in fifth in a Grade 1 at Oaklawn Park 42 days ago; looking for the third success of his career; this is a step down in class but looks risky.

Lordship

Jockey: Dylan Davis Trainer: Chad Brown Age/Wt: 3/8-6 F: 1

Comment: Scored narrowly at Tampa Bay Downs, defying lack of previous experience at 7-5 49 days ago; related to Grade 3 winner Hall Of Fame; this looks tougher but has to be taken seriously.
