4Jean BricenoSomraj SinghA winner at 5f on good ground. Beaten 6l behind P Money at 33-10 when seventh of 9 on his latest outing at Laurel Park over 5f (good) earlier this month. Down in class so worth plenty of attention.
(9) Tap Anchor

Tap Anchor has switched stables and has been gelded since his breakthrough triumph at Churchill Downs. That success came last November, though, so LADDIE DANCE, who made every post a winning one over track and trip last month, may be the safer option. Surprise Hello is worth a look on the class drop.

3Christian MaldonadoJonathan MaldonadoHe has won three times at 1m. Finished 20l behind Omar Comin when fifth of 6 at 14-5 on his latest outing at Timonium over 1m earlier this month. Goes well at this circuit.


WORKISLIFE has only been out of the first two once in 2024, when a close-up fourth over 7f here, and he recorded his third success in emphatic fashion at Charles Town most recently. He looks worth sticking with, although Agarramesipuedes, Mr Jefferson and Money Room are all capable of making him work.

After beating Prince Khozan to the runner-up berth over a mile, SWITZER ran a cracker to finish a close-up third in an allowance race over track and trip. If he can perform to that level again, then Anthony Farrior's five-year-old might be too good for another class dropper in T Rex.

3Tais LyapustinaRodolfo SalomonHe has won three times at 1m. A winner at 16-5 at Timonium over 1m on his latest outing last month, beating Little Lance by 9l. Represents an in-form stable and cannot be overlooked lightly.
(3) Cataleya Strike
3Jean AlveloRodolfo SalomonA winner at 1m. Finished 6l behind Regalo when fifth of 7 at 70-1 on his latest outing at Colonial Downs over 1m last month. Must be of interest easing in grade.
(4) Brooklyn Guy
4Angel CruzDiane MoriciHe has won three times at 1m. Beaten 7l by Mosler Time when second of 5 at 9-2 on his latest outing at Laurel Park over 1m earlier this month. Every chance of going one place better here.

(7) Tiger Moon
5Mychel SanchezLindsay SchultzWinner of five races from 1m to 1m 1f. Third of 6 behind Prairie Hawk beaten 5l at 13-10fav on his latest outing at Monmouth Park over 1m last month. This is more demanding but he would be dangerous to dismiss.
(8) Cap Com
3Darwin RodriguezSomraj SinghSuccessful at 4f and 1m. Third of 5 behind Mosler Time beaten 8l at 11-5 on his latest outing at Laurel Park over 1m earlier this month. Big each-way contender.


HITTHEROADJAK fairly bolted up over a mile last month and, stepping up in trip, he should be tough to stop with a reproduction of that effort. Brooklyn Guy and Cap Com are also respected.
