COASTAL BREEZE (7) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at Churchill Downs (Dirt), finishing eighth and beaten 15 lengths over 1207m. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he can find the winners' list. DAWSON JAMES (1) returns after eight months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Rates highly and is a strong chance to break through. MAJOR LEAGUE (5) is a three-year-old gelding who has filled a minor placing just once in five runs. Safely held when resuming last start over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt), finishing seventh and beaten 8 lengths. Settles back early but winds up late. Winning claims on best figures. IRISH WHISKEY (10) was prominent at the bend and finished second last time over 1106m at Santa Anita (Dirt), beaten 5 lengths. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is good enough to take this out.
