Verdict

FASTMAN is taken to show he is a progressive colt and can be rewarded for three fine efforts in defeat this season. Regular is another who looks on the upgrade and the type who will be winning handicaps soon. Obee Jo is interesting stepping up in trip and could improve on recent efforts. Howzer Black is another improving type would could figure in the shake up.
