NOTHING BETTER (5) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 0.8 lengths over 5½f in stakes class at this track (Turf). That continued the very strong form this campaign, with two wins from three runs. Top chance again. SENBEI (7) was impressive last time over 6f at Aqueduct (Turf), scoring by 2.25 lengths. Well placed here and should go close. GROOMS ALL BIZNESS (2) has won at both starts this campaign, the latest by 1.3 lengths over 5f at Listed level at this track (Turf). Lay-off so a top-three finish is on the cards. XY SPEED (3) is back from a lay-off of 12 weeks and brings solid fresh form to the table. Strung together three wins before the break, the latest over 5f at Gulfstream Park. Distance specialist with 12 wins and eight minor placings from 25 runs and should be in the finish.
