Prairie Meadows Race 4 - 1m 1/2f Stakes
INCA EMPIRE (4) improved last start to finish second over 1673m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Meets some better types this time but another big run will not surprise. RIVER RIDGE (5) opened this prep with a win two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when prominent at the bend before winding up in third over 1106m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Enjoys a drop in grade so he will prove hard to beat. DOUBLE ECHO (6) ran well below his best last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten 22 lengths into seventh at $4.10. Should park just off the speed. One of the main contenders. TIZ WICKED STRONG (1) improved sharply last time out to score by 6 lengths over 1609m at this track (Dirt) three weeks ago. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.

Comes here off a 47-day let-up. Last start 2nd in a small field at this track on May 31 over 1207m, 3 len behind Hunters Ghost with 56kg at $8. Before that won by 1.5 len at Will Rogers Downs April 13 over 1609m defeating Leviathan Axe with 57kg at $5.10. Can't see him troubling these.
