Close with Capuccino

TIGRAY EXPRESS' fast-time win at seven and a half furlongs on February 1 should make the six-year-old an automatic banker on his return to the level for Sunday's Reggae 6 opener.

However, racing out of a new barn often results in a reversal of form among claimers, who can never be trusted.

To safeguard against an 'off-the-claim' pitfall, surround TIGRAY EXPRESS with possibilities such as LET HIM FLY, HIGH DIPLOMACY, ANONYMOUS, TEKAPUNT and NOMOREDEALS.

After taking the plunge in the opener, go with a steady hand by banking consistent MEDAL AWARD, who, though a bridesmaid, can't do any better but win the second at six furlongs in the watered-down category of five-year-old maidens.

Anthony Nunes' first-timer, PERFECT AFFAIR, has been keeping company with a Canadian stablemate, MISS GROVE, in the mornings, galloping 1:15.4 for six furlongs recently, making him tough to beat among maidens in the third.

Throw the kitchen sink at the fourth event, older non-winners of three races, at five furlongs round. Similarly, the fifth requires multiple selections including HAPPY FORCE, who ran too bad to be true last time out.

Close the Reggae 6 with a banker, CAPUCCINO, who ran a brave race on last among $500,000 claimers, now aimed down in class at $350,000 company.
