Race Tip

GRAN ORIENTE (7) was well held in the Breeders' Cup Mile won by Notable Speech over 1m at Del Mar at his last appearance ten weeks ago. Should be prominent from the outset. Will play a major role. BALLADEER (9) ran ninth at his latest appearance over 1m4f at Del Mar, clocking in 10 lengths from the winner. Key runner. GENIUS JIMMY (3) is a talented gelding who was well held last time out in the tougher won by Zverev over 1m2f at Turfway Park, beaten 10 lengths into sixth. Is going okay this campaign, recording two wins and two minor placings from eight starts. Looks one of the prime contenders. SPYCATCHER (8) comes here off a break of ten weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 1m1f at this track. Yet to win when resuming but generally runs well with four minor placings from five tries. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.
