CALLING CARD (4) was too good for a maiden field last start over 1m at Aqueduct (Dirt), scoring by 17 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Progressing well so worth following up. SANDMAN (2) hasn’t been far away since a maiden win three runs back, the latest effort a third over 1m1/2f in the G3 Street Sense Stakes at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on October 27. Will find this much easier. Sure to feature. GLOBAL LEGEND (5) started at 7/2 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 35 lengths at Keeneland (Dirt) over 1m1/2f. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is right in contention. BIG MUCH (1) is back from a lay-off of 12 weeks. Won on debut at the only appearance last prep, collecting a 6½f contest at Churchill Downs by a nose. Major player.
