AMALGAMATE (6) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7f at Churchill Downs, beaten 8 lengths. Perfectly placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. KEEN TALENT (3) is back after a break of seven months. At the last run before the layoff he finished fifth over 1m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Good chance to break through. SIG FORTY FIVE (5) is a eight-start maiden who could only manage to finish eighth at his latest appearance over 6½f at this track (Synthetic). Among the chances in what looks a nice race for him. TURNBUCKLE (9) failed to figure again last time over 1m at this track (Synthetic), beaten 9 lengths into seventh. Can feature in the finish.
