QUEENSBURY deserves a win after recording 4 placings from his past 4 in races like this one. With a genuine speed likely up front he should be suited getting a soft trail around midfield. RUSSIAN DUCHESS should be improved by her two runs back. She's well weighted and well drawn. Her only other 1600m start resulted in a 2nd to the highly rated Zakouma. FINANCE SHOGUN was terrific trying to lead all the way here last time. If he didn't get the pressure from Prestige Snitzel, he probably wins. Blinkers come off that horse, so maybe that pressure won't be there this time. ANNABELLE SUNSHINE is always big odds for a mare who puts her head down and has a crack. Any luck from the draw or a swooper bias and she's in the game. REINA ISABELLA next from COUNT OF TOULOUSE.
