EFFICACY (6) was beaten just 0.3 lengths last start and landed his first top-three finish in the process over this track and trip. Looks close to a win and gets his chance in this suitable contest. VERNOR'S JUNCTION (9) is still a maiden after nine starts. Could only manage to finish fifth last time out over 5½f at this track (Turf) following a minor placing at this track (Turf) over 5½f the run prior. Should be in the mix. ITALIANO KID (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5½f at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths into fourth. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. PRETTY JIMMY (3) is a four-year-old gelding who has filled a minor placing just once in 10 runs. Failed to threaten when 16 lengths from the winner in 11th when resuming last start over 1m at this track (Turf). Likely improver with blinkers added.
