EGYPTIAN (14) finished second two runs back at Aqueduct (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 0.3 lengths as public elect over 1609m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Finds a tougher race but another win is not out of the question. JACK'S WORLD (4) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1811m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths into fifth. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. OAT COUTOUR (9) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1710m at Aqueduct Turf after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Junior Alvarado gets the best out of this four-year-old gelding. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he deserves plenty of thought. SUPER DAVE (5) accounted for a maiden field over 1207m at Aqueduct Inner Turf (Turf) last start, finishing 5 lengths ahead of the nearest rival. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped.
