Group 3 placegetter IMPLEMENTATION (7) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at Churchill Downs (Dirt), finishing eighth and beaten 2.75 lengths over 6½f. Likely improver with strong prospects. CAPE TRAFALGAR (5) comes here off a break of 12 weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 1m at Gulfstream Park. One of the genuine hopes in the race. CLEAR THE AIR (4) was unplaced on turf over 5½f at this track in a then again couldn't find the top-three on the same surface last time out, finishing seventh over 5f at Churchill Downs. In the mix on his best efforts. Group 3 placegetter BILLAL (6) impressed last start when in the money over 1m in the G3 Dwyer Stakes at Aqueduct (Dirt) in a black-type race, beaten 12 lengths. Must be included in calculations.
