4. Hurricane JimHalf-brother to a first-out winner

RACE 2

8. Big HamboneIn a race devoid of speed, this one should head right to the front

3. Radar AlertMakes second start off the bench
4. Tech DuinnTwo good efforts of late

7. Top of the MintWilling try last out in first in two months and can move forward off that; probably less likely to win than #6 but hoping for value

5. Pink DinghyGalloped last time spotted against similar
7. He RollsShifts into Collyer barn (4/21 first after trainer switch)
