GORDIAN KNOT (8) lifted strongly to score by 0.1 lengths two runs back at this track (Dirt) then finished fifth over 1207m at Listed level at this track (Dirt) last time in tougher grade. Mychel J Sanchez who has scored on him six times retains the mount. Should be hard to stop. COUNTERSPY (3) gave a bold display over this course and distance last start, racing on the speed and boxing on well to finish second and beaten 1.75 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race. WINNING TIME (6) is fitter for two runs back from a spell, progressing nicely last time to finish second, beaten 0.1 lengths, at this track (Dirt) over 1308m. Should be prominent from the outset. Sure to be competitive. FACTOR U AND ME IN (2) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1308m at Aqueduct, finishing 10 lengths from the winner. Deserves serious consideration.
