A number of these are returning from their winter break but High Five Cotton and ONE LUCKY STEP, who were plying their trade at Delaware Park last summer, have been working with enthusiasm on this track and could fight out the finish. Mary Ann Bennett’s charge just gets the nod as he seems a natural over this trip whereas the first-named drops back from a mile. Mr. Kisses placed twice over 6f here before failing to quicken last time so has place claims again with Pollard Star, another returning from a lengthy absence, probably best of the rest.
