DESERT GATE (8) is racing well this preparation, including a last start win over 1710m at Listed level at Lone Star Park (Dirt) to bring up two wins from three runs in the campaign. Has a high cruising speed. Expected to be in the finish. CHIP HONCHO (3) comes here off a last-start third, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 1911m at Laurel. Ready to run well. OCELLI (5) was unplaced in tougher last time when beaten 7 lengths in the G1 Preakness Stakes at Laurel (Dirt) over 1911m. Better placed the run before when he finished third over 2012m at Churchill Downs. Settles off the speed. Well placed here and among the winning hopes. TRENDSETTER (4) showed good speed and fought on for third over 1811m in the G3 Peter Pan Stakes at Aqueduct (Dirt) last time. Winning rider Kazushi Kimura stays aboard. Not to be discounted.
