Dance Doctor finished behind Kwik and Strong Side when they filled the places here last month and the latter has subsequently been beaten by only a nose in this grade, But VALIANT APPEAL went close in a tougher allowance race than this at Houston last time with Flatout Winner back in fourth and Greg Tracy’s charge can go one better at this lower level. Launch Light Dream has been in good form at Sunland but faces a more difficult task today.
