ILLUSTRATION (3) is yet to break through after nine starts. Placed two back then last time out was fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 1207m at Gulfstream Park (Dirt). Capable of sharp improvement and can get off the mark. DESI'S TROUBLE (9) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing when in contention on the corner, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1207m at Monmouth Park. Finds a tougher race but another big run is on the cards. KENRIC (1) is ready to win after he just missed last time, beaten half a length into second over 1207m at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). Must raise the bar but another big run is on the cards. AXEL FOLEY (4) has been freshened up since he finished seventh over 1408m at Charles Town (Dirt) six weeks ago. Backmarker who gets home hard. Can run on into the finish.
