LION IN THE SUN (3) met with solid support last start over 1710m at Penn National (Dirt) when third, beaten 8 lengths. Back in trip and worth another chance. IMPERIAL SPY (6) resumes from a six-and-a-half months spell and looked close to a win before the break, starting favourite and finishing third at Laurel (Turf). Can pick up where he left off. Rates highly and is a strong chance to take this out. THE HERO CODE (4) was beaten for early speed and didn't come into contention when a disappointing ninth over 1811m at Aqueduct (Dirt) most recently. Faces an easier assignment so he can find the winners' list. IT'S AUTHENTIC (9) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when third over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Hard to leave out.
