KENTUCKY BELLE (3) knuckled down strongly to get within 1. 5 lengths of the winner in third last start over 1m at Churchill Downs on debut. Will drift back but wind up late. Best form puts her right in this. ATHENIX (6) went forward last start over 1m1/2f at Colonial Downs (Turf) and held on well for third, beaten 2 lengths. Should be prominent again from the low draw. Meets some better types this time but she has the ability to test this field. COUNTERINTUITIVE (11) has not raced since her debut back on August 22 when she finished fourth over 1m1/2f at Saratoga (Turf). Top-three chance with that run under her belt. IMPROBABLE U (4) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at Colonial Downs (Turf) over 1m1/2f. Should park just off the speed. Should give backers a sight.
