WALT WHITMAN (7) was last at the races when he finished seventh over 1408m at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt) on March 8. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Juan Carlos Gotera. Should be hard to stop. INTO THE SUNRISE (8) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3.5 lengths when seventh over 1006m at Horseshoe Indianapolis two weeks ago after being in contention on the bend. Perfectly placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. TRIGGER POINT (9) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by a nose over 1106m at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with three wins and two minor placings from eight runs. Should be in the finish. DROPKICK MURPHY (5) was comfortably accounted for when third last time out over 1006m at this track, beaten 5 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. One of the main hopes. Something for the Multiples: WROTE IN STONE (3) LITTLE BIG (6)
