GUARDIAN (1) started at 11/4 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 6f after being in contention on the turn. Won't find this as tough so he is sure to be prominent. SHIP SHIP HOORAY (5) made a nice return two starts back then settled well back and found a few when fifth over 6f at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt) a month ago. Fitter and deserves another chance. MITTY'S GRIDDY (4) finished out of the money two starts back then he was always well out of his ground and was beaten 3. 5 lengths when fourth over 6½f at Churchill Downs two-and-a-half weeks ago. This doesn't look as hard so he is one of the main contenders. GALLO DE FUEGO (3) is ticking along okay with two runs this time in. Improved last time out when second, beaten one length, at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 6f. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Must be respected.
