ONLY PHIL (5) debuted a month ago when he finished fifth over 6½f at Churchill Downs (Dirt), beaten 7 lengths. Likely improver and worth following up. RIPPED (1) could only manage seventh on dirt over 1m1/2f at Oaklawn Park in a then couldn't find the top-three on turf over 5½f at Churchill Downs more recently. Major player back on the dirt. MELLIFLUOUS (3) turned in an eye-catching run over 7f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish third. Tough to stop again. SAINT SHANCE (7) is back from a lay-off of four months. Debuted with a second, beaten 2.25 lengths, over 6f at Turfway Park at his only appearance to date. Ticks all the right boxes.
