BIENVILLE (7) sat just off the speed and fought on well to finish third when resuming last start at this course and distance. Will drift back but wind up late. Leading contender. TELECASTER (4) turned in a better run last time to finish third over 1207m at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. TAPCON (12) turned in a moderate run over this journey last time out, settling in a rearwards position and failing to come on when eighth over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. RIDGE OF FIRE (3) is returning from a spell of a year. Finished sixth at this track (Dirt) over 1207m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Conor Murphy.
