Race Tip

IDRATHERBEBLESSED (6) was prominent at the turn and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1m1/2f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Worth noting Rafael Bejarano goes aboard. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BETTER BET (4) drifted back from his wide draw last time then hit the line hard to finish third at Keeneland (Turf) over 1m4f. Will be a major player again. SAINT IN THE CITY (14) finished seventh two runs back at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Turf) then improved last time out to score by a nose after being in contention on the corner over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf). Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. KING CURLIN (5) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on September 7 finishing eighth and beaten 23 lengths over 1m4f in the G2 Kentucky Cup Turf Stakes (Turf). Worth plenty of thought.
