TURN UP THE TREES (6) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 1. 75 lengths over 6f at Churchill Downs (Dirt). That continued the solid form this campaign, with three wins and three minor placings from eight outings. Big chance once again. NORTHERN CHILL (1) finished second at Churchill Downs two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 6f at Churchill Downs (Dirt), finishing 11 lengths back in seventh. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. VIKING (3) is going well, scoring by half a length two runs back at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt) before finishing fourth last time over 7½f at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Can bounce back to winning form. NICHOLAI (2) finished midfield at his first run back from a lay-off last start, beaten 7 lengths over 6f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) at long odds. Fitter and with blinkers added is worth including.
