ALTO ROAD (4) Reeled them in when winning last start at Horseshoe Indianapolis and taking on a lower class of opponents. Has shown early pace in races to date. Has to be strongly considered. HURTS SO BAD (7) Ran on strongly when 2nd last time at the track but up against a higher level of opposition. Jockey Alexis Centeno and trainer Antonio Meraz work well together. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. SAND MOUNTAIN (3) Couldn't find the line when 4th last time at Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing and proven performer at this distance. The large claim from Brittany Troxtell helps. Serious player. CHRISTMAS PRESENT (2) Disappointing run when 8th last time here but has a positive barrier. Has a nice turn of foot. Valentin Esquivel provides some weight relief but racing in stronger company. Solid place bet prospects.
