CLARET BERET (2) boxed on to finish second last start over 7f in the G2 Chicago Handicap at Churchill Downs (Dirt), beaten 0.8 lengths. Ideally placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. HAULIN ICE (7) displayed plenty of early toe over 6½f in Listed grade at this track (Dirt) last time and went on to score by 3 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. ROYAL POPPY (8) has scored at her last two starts, most recently by 6 lengths over 7f at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with three wins and three minor placings from eight outings. Can feature again. RUMOURS HAVE IT (9) scored last start at this track (Dirt) to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Record here is impressive with two wins from five starts. Too good to ignore.
