PURPLE OCTOPUS (5) changes rider since being well held last time in seventh over 7f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on May 4. Last run worth forgiving. Can atone. MY TENNIS SHOES (6) returned to winning form last start, scoring by 0.3 lengths over this journey at this track (Dirt). Has started three times at this journey and has never missed the frame. Leading player. HOPPIN JOHN (4) made progress last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 5½f at this track after being in contention on the turn. Looks well placed so expect another big run. BE LUCKY (1) was in contention on the corner and finished third last time over 5½f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 5 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect another bold run.
