Group 3 placegetter THREE ECHOES (2) scored his maiden win four back and is poised to salute again after finishing in the money at the last three outings, most recently when third over 7f in stakes class at Ellis Park (Dirt). Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Sure to be in the finish. HOT GUNNER (1) ran third at his latest appearance over 6f at Prairie Meadows, finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner. Perfectly placed to score. RING SEEKER (3) resumes after a break of 11 weeks. Did win at his only other when resuming run when on debut, scoring over 5f at Lone Star Park. Makes plenty of appeal. ESSAY (9) finished midfield at his first run back from a lay-off last start, beaten 7 lengths over 6½f at Listed level at Kentucky (Turf) at a huge quote. Drops back in grade. Don't underestimate.
