VALE (6) finished fourth two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 5.5 lengths as favourite after being in contention on the corner over 1207m at Will Rogers Downs (Dirt). Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. I'M WIDE AWAKE (13) started at $3.20 last time and ran below expectations, finishing ninth and beaten 5 lengths at Fairgrounds Turf (Turf) over 1106m. Ideally placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. LUDWIG (11) has accrued two minor placings from three runs this preparation. Continued the trend at the most recent appearance when third over 1207m at this track (Dirt) after he was prominent throughout. Finds the right race this time and can find winning form. LORD MAJESTY (8) was well beaten last time and finished at the tail at this track (Dirt) but carries less weight today. Rates well in this and can do much better.
