ULTIMATE STRIKE (8) did little and finished 13 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1m at Saratoga last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Saratoga the run before. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. JOHNSON (3) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when sixth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1m at Ellis Park (Dirt). This doesn't look as hard so he is perfectly placed to score. PUBLICITY (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m at Horseshoe Indianapolis, beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth. Going up a level this time but he deserves another chance. ROMANTIC LEAD (5) ran a bold race over this journey last start, racing on the pace and sticking on strongly to finish 2 lengths away in second at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Facing a tougher assignment but he is up to the task.
