Can’t count on it, but Cyrielle (5-1), who exits Rushing Fall MDN win, has a chance to nurse it around all the way up front. Think you likely need all four of these to get through, though simply using both Chad Browns (#’s 5/10) might be effective budgetary approach..

2-5-6-7-9 appear the prime players, but lack of pace renders this pretty wide open. Southern Thunder (8-1) may go forward with better break under hustling Pedroza. Treacherous start to daunting sequence..
