WIN THE WAR
Trainer: Mark Casse
Last race: Oct. 20, 3rd
Finish: 1st by neck
Beyer: 60
He took the long way home from the back of the pack and prevailed despite lugging in through the stretch on debut in a maiden special weight turf sprint. The $700,000 yearling purchase by War Front appears to have some potential.

MASTER MACDUFF
Trainer: Nick Nosowenko
Last race: Oct. 21, 10th
Finish: 3rd by 2 1/4
He rallied six wide on his left lead from off slow fractions in his second try against $10,000 non-winners-of-two opposition and could break through by the end of the meet.

CANADA WISE DON
Trainer: Zelijko Krcmar
Last race: Oct. 18, 8th
Finish: 2nd by 3/4
Beyer: 55
After breaking from post 14 in a seven-furlong race for $6,250 non-winners of two, he battled three wide for the lead on the turn before coming up a little short in a gritty performance.
