STARS AND STRIDES (6) resumes after a break of ten weeks. Looking to emulate his debut win over 7f at Saratoga to kick off last prep. Comes to hand quickly so a bold showing is expected. NOBLE CONFESSOR (1) raced on the speed from the outset last start and finished second, beaten 2 lengths, over 1m3f in the G2 Jockey Club Derby Invitational Stakes at this track (Turf). Ideally placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. MAYOR OF MIDNIGHT (8) scored by 0. 3 lengths last time out over 1m3f at this track (Turf). Yet to miss the placings here in an excellent record which boasts two wins and one placing. Winning claims on best figures. CHURCH AND STATE (3) finished 3. 5 lengths behind the winner in fifth over 1m in Listed grade at this track (Turf) last start after lifting strongly to score two runs back. Can sneak into the finish.
