La Troienne Stakes winner IDIOMATIC (1) found one better last start in the G1 Personal Ensign Stakes at Saratoga (Dirt) over this distance after she was in contention on the corner. Has never been out of the money in five starts at this trip, including three wins. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Will prove tough to beat. Alcibiades Stakes winner CANDIED (2) really dug deep to get the prize by 4.5 lengths three runs back in Listed grade at Monmouth Park (Dirt) before filling a minor placing at her last two starts. Reunites with Luis Saez who has two wins from four rides. Likely to feature. Group 2 winner HONOR D LADY (4) is back after a break of three months. Looking to emulate her win at Gulfstream Park when returning from a lay-off last prep. Has recorded two wins when when resuming from a break. Worth plenty of thought. LOVED (3) has her first look at a turf track. Resumed last start with a moderate sixth over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs, beaten 6 lengths. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Must be respected.
