Going: Standard

HECTOR (3) showed good early pace last time and battled on gamely to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 6f at this track (Synthetic). Drawn to advantage. Looks well placed so expect another bold performance. RECYCLE (9) ran below expectations last time at this track (Synthetic), finishing seventh and beaten 4.5 lengths starting at 5/2. Likely improver with strong prospects. COLONEL POPPY (8) produced a good run two starts back to finish third but was below par last time when out of the placings at this track (Synthetic) over 1m1/4f. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MIDNIGHT AMBITION (6) has switched yards since scoring by 3 lengths at Churchill Downs over 7f on June 16.
