LA FORET (3) continued the good recent form when she finished just 1.5 lengths away in second last time out over 5½f at Churchill Downs (Turf). Drawn for a good run and rates highly in this line up. Expected to go well. MENDELA (4) is returning from a brief lay-off and has a first look at a turf track. Opened last campaign with a second at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) over 6f. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Among the leading chances. MAGIC ESCAPADE (7) went forward and proved too strong last time, scoring with 1.75 lengths to spare over 5½f at Churchill Downs (Turf). One of the main contenders. MODERN SOUND (2) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at Churchill Downs (Turf) over 5½f. Has the class to produce a better result.
