SOONTOBEKING (15) really dug deep to get the prize by 0.1 lengths three runs back at Listed level at Aqueduct (Dirt) before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Eric Cancel who has three wins when partnering stays on. Among the leading chances. ASBURY PARK (2) broke through for his maiden win over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf) last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Jumps from a nice gate and he is worth including. FOND FAREWELL (7) drifted back then closed strongly to score as favourite on debut over 5½f at Churchill Downs (Turf) five weeks ago. Will come on following that run and looks a definite threat. KING OF ASHES (12) broke his maiden four starts back and has not been far away since, most recently when beaten 0.3 lengths into second over 1m1f in stakes class at Churchill Downs (Turf). Well placed in this easier race. Well placed and not to be discounted.
