BERNING BEAUTY (2) is a distance specialist who was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m at Saratoga, beaten 13 lengths into fifth. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he can find the winners' list. KOLOMIO (1) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 1m at Aqueduct 15 months ago. Should camp just off the leaders. Will play a major role. FREEDSDALE (4) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 4. 5 lengths over 1m at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins from four outings. Among the leading players again. ZEEBEAR (6) last appeared five weeks ago over 1m1/4f at this track when he finished fifth. This is his first run for the M A Ferraro stable. Worth plenty of thought.
