NATIVE LAND (4) looks close to a win, the latest effort a strong second, beaten 0.3 lengths, over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt). One of the main chances. FRIAR NEWTON (2) has put together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on June 11 over 1m1/4f when he got home by 3 lengths. Winning rider Joseph D Ramos retains the mount. Meets a stronger field but he is good enough to figure in the finish. TRADEMARK (7) was safely held when resuming last start over 1m in the G3 Salvator Mile Stakes at Monmouth Park (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 19 lengths. Significant class drop this time. Certainly one to consider. WINTERS LION (6) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role.
