PARCHMENT PARTY (2) finished third two runs back at Churchill Downs (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 8 lengths over 1m6f in the G3 Belmont Gold Cup Invitational Stakes at this track (Dirt). John R Velazquez scored on him last time and retains the mount. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done again. DIGITAL OPS (6) held on well to finish second last start over 1m1f at this track (Dirt), beaten 1.5 lengths as favourite. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is worth serious consideration. LAMBETH (4) could only manage fourth on dirt over 1m4f at Churchill Downs in a then couldn't find the top-three on turf over 1m3f at Churchill Downs more recently. Will find this much easier. Certainly one to consider. STRAPPED (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1f at this track, beaten 9 lengths into fourth. Better than recent efforts suggest.
