HELLACIOUS (5) has recorded three minor placings from four starts to date, the latest when second over 6f at Aqueduct (Turf). He is well placed to break through. LEBOMBO (2) is a 15-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth at his latest appearance over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Finds a suitable assignment this time and is a great chance to break through. SNARE (13) made progress last time out, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 6f at Aqueduct after being in contention on the corner. Won't find this as tough so he is one of the main contenders. ARTHUR JR (7) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 7½f at Churchill Downs, beaten 2. 25 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role.
