BAEZA (8) went forward last start over 1m1f in the G2 Jim Dandy Stakes at Saratoga (Dirt) and held on well for second, beaten one length. Tricky draw to overcome but does have good gate speed. Going up a level this time but he cannot be underestimated. GOAL ORIENTED (6) is a promising galloper who resumes from a break. Last raced when third over 1m1f in the G1 Haskell Invitational at Monmouth Park (Dirt) nine weeks ago. Has never been out of the placings when resuming from two tries. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Sure to be in the finish. BIG TRUZZ (7) is an honest type who impressed last time, scoring by 7 lengths over 1m in Listed grade at Ellis Park (Dirt). Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Sure to be competitive. GOSGER (9) is a progressive three-year-old colt who hasn't raced since finishing second over 1m1f in the G1 Haskell Invitational at Monmouth Park (Dirt) on July 19. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a lay-off in three starts. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. In the mix.
