DISCOTHEQUE (3) is a 16-start maiden who has been in the money nine times, Could only manage fourth last time out over 1m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Has a solid record here with two top-three finishes to his name. Won't get too many better chances to break through. THE STANDARD (6) is a four-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 5 lengths when fourth over 6f at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Chance to break his maiden status with that run under his belt. REGENERATION (2) resumes from a lay-off of six months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1m1/4f at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). One of the leading chances. SIR DUKE (1) has not appeared since he finished third on debut over 6½f at Aqueduct on March 29. Everything points to a big run.
