REAL MEN VIOLIN (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1308m at this track, beaten 11 lengths into fourth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. TAVERN TIME (2) finds it hard to win with just one success from 10 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1710m at Laurel, beaten 12 lengths. Finds a nice race and can salute. BONAFIDE (5) last appeared three-and-a-half weeks ago over 1811m at Keeneland when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Robert Mosco stable. One of the genuine hopes in the race. EXTRASEXYMCSTEEMEE (3) had been racing consistently, finishing in the money three races on end, until finishing fourth as favourite last time out over 1207m at this track. Should be poised just off the lead. Must be respected.
