Prize Money: $13,649

MR BUSINESS (4) was quickly into stride and went on to score by 0.3 lengths last time out over 1609m at Mountaineer Park Turf (Turf). Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role. GOLDEN COOKIE (7) made progress last start to finish third over 1207m at Penn National. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. SOUTHERN BULLET (8) saluted at this track two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when prominent at the corner before finishing second over 1106m at this track, beaten a nose. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. MAS QUE NADA (6) went forward and proved too strong last time, scoring with one length to spare over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Not to be discounted.

Most recently raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 2.25 len at this track on October 4 over 1207m defeating Mexicali Mike with 56kg at $10.20. Before that ran last of 9 at Presque Isle Downs on September 14 over 1673m, 24 len behind Snovember carrying 56kg at $54.70. Likely to run around at long odds and deservedly so.
