RUNAWAY STORM (3) is back from a lay-off of 11 months. Was narrowly beaten at his only appearance when last in work in Listed grade at this track (Turf) over 1m1/2f. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Will play a major role. RUN AWAY ROJO (5) resumed five weeks ago over 5½f at this track and was only beaten 0.8 lengths into fourth. Has a fair record when second up, including two top-three finishes. The engagement of Emmanuel Esquivel is a positive move. Fitter so expect a better run this time. QUADRA ISLAND (8) was in the money two starts back at Turfway Park but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 5.5 lengths, at Churchill Downs (Turf) over 1m1f. This is a nice drop in grade so he is perfectly placed to score. TAKE ME TO CHURCH (6) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a eighth over 1m at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Finds a nice race and can turn things around.
