Prize Money: $49,094

JOHN'S ROCK (5) returns today and is on a run of four straight wins, the latest over 1673m at Mahoning Valley on April 9. Has a fine record here with four wins from 11 starts. Among the leading chances. FAIR AND SQUARE (1) is a talented gelding who was well held last time in tougher grade over 1710m at Listed level at Belterra Park (Turf). Rocco Bowen who has two wins when partnering stays on. Sure to play a big role. HENRY MAC (3) was an emphatic winner last time over 1710m at Listed level at Belterra Park (Turf) with today's rider Jose A Bracho engaged. Has a solid record here at the distance with two wins and three placings from six tries. Capable of a big run. CHANNEL FURY (7) finished in the money at each run this campaign before a deserved win last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Has a strong record at this distance with a win and three minor placings from four starts and deserves respect. Something for the Multiples: LAKE RADIO (4)
