ASTAR (2) finished 6 lengths from the winner in fourth last start after being prominent at the bend over 1m1f at Churchill Downs, an improvement on his fifth on debut at Churchill Downs the run before. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is a major player. ORATOR (8) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 1m1/2f at Monmouth Park. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running a bold race. COOPER (1) is a seven-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent appearance over 1m1f at Laurel (Turf). Finds the right race and is worth consideration. CURVED (5) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish second, beaten one length, over 1m1f at Gulfstream Park (Synthetic). Will be doing his best work late.
