Race Tip

MAXIMUM EFFORT (13) did little and finished 7 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1m1/2f at this track last start after being prominent at the bend, a less impressive effort than his fifth at Churchill Downs the run before. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ROYAL CAUSEWAY (6) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. FOLLOW UP (2) is a three-year-old colt on debut. From an elite family that includes black type success, being by Upstart from Etsu. Has fared well at the stall draw and should be in the finish. BLACK HORNET (1) finished 9 lengths away in eighth after being prominent at the turn at his last appearance over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt) on December 20. Looks to be in the right race to figure in the finish.
