JEDI'S WAY (2) Led all the way to win by 4 1/2L last run at this track and stepping back up in distance. Should muster plenty of early speed. Has a positive gate. Worth a ticket. THIRD DEGREE (4) Ran on strongly when 2nd last start at Turfway Park. Has a nice turn of foot. Amongst the placegetters multiple times this campaign. Right in this. CONVERT (5) Good result placing 3rd last time at the track. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. A win wouldn't surprise. PHOTO HOP (3) Did well to run into 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start at this track. Anthony Farrior stable are on a hot streak. Keep in mind.
