BOLD STRENGTH (5) finished second, beaten 1. 5 lengths, over 6½f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on debut six months ago and has been kept under wraps since. Sure to have improved over the break and expected to go well again. SALVATION (4) has registered two minor placings from three runs this campaign. Turned in another good performance last start when second over 1m at this track (Dirt) after he was prominent throughout. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. DURATION (1) closed last campaign with four consecutive minor placings and is back. After a break of four months. Has a decent record at this trip with three minor placings from four tries and is one of the prime contenders. LIMO (7) has been freshened up since he finished fifth over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf) six-and-a-half weeks ago. Anticipating a better run.
