THE INSTITUTE (2) finished out of the money two starts back then he settled well back and was beaten 21 lengths when sixth in a 7f contest at Aqueduct five-and-a-half weeks ago. L E Perez gets the best out of this five-year-old gelding. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. FLYING EMPEROR (4) returns from a break of six-and-a-half months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a second over 6f at this track. Goes well when fresh including two wins. One of the leading players. LADY'S GOLDEN GUY (1) is back after a break of six months. Looking to emulate his win at this track at the beginning of last prep. Has recorded three wins when when resuming from a break. Among the better hopes. TRA LAD (3) is back at the races for the first time since December 30. Scored over 6f at this track to launch the last campaign. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
