SHRED THE GNAR (5) returns from a lay-off of 11 weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when sixth over 1m1/2f in the G3 Royal Delta Stakes at Gulfstream Park (Dirt). Hard to knock the record of Luis Saez when aboard yet to miss the frame including three wins. Should be in the finish. FULLY SUBSCRIBED (9) returns from the paddock after closing last prep with two consecutive wins, the most recent over 1m1f in the G3 Comely Stakes at Aqueduct (Dirt). Takes on tougher opposition this time but a bold showing is expected. BLESS THE BROKEN (1) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1m in the G1 Beholder Mile Stakes at Santa Anita (Dirt). Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. SCALABLE (2) went forward and proved too strong last time, scoring with 1. 75 lengths to spare over 1m1f in stakes class at Aqueduct (Dirt). Has been in sound form this prep with two wins from five starts. Deserves respect on her best figures.
