In the 5th, Ship's Piano looks good to me at 4-1.Two of his last three have been very strong for this level, the third race was a dud following an eight month layoff.
Now returns after a 5 day layoff

In the 6th, I think it's all about Ballast(5-1 ml) getting in due to the 50k claiming price condition. Interesting race, though

I cant see Buddys Humor winning in this spot....
Ships Piano looks ok, but the race is wide open, i have at least 4 horses with chances..
Ballast is a nice horse, but i rate at least 4 higher, and at this point, with him being 7 he could very well be over the top, i would be shocked and impressed if he could beat these.
