Group 2 winner A FAMOUS RIBBON (5) was a narrow winner in a in Group 2 grade at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) then out of the money last time when fourth at Listed level at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Gets a little weight relief. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and a placing from three starts. Expected to be in the finish. Group 1 winner HES JUDGEANDJURY (3) has had two runs since a break, the latest a fifth over 1f80yards at this track (Dirt), beaten 1.1 lengths. Group 1 winner THA DUKE (4) is a talented galloper resuming from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months. Will find this easier than the latest outing when fourth over 1f180yards in the G3 Miss Preakness Stakes at Delta Downs (Dirt). Is a when resuming winner in the past. Goes very well at this journey, boasting seven wins from 13 starts and should be involved in the finish. When resuming over 1f180yards at grade 1 level at this track (dirt), beaten 1.1 lengths. Back a level after tackling a tougher race last time. Well placed and expected to measure up. Among the top-three hopes.
