RIDER'S SPECIAL (9) lines up for the first time since August 7. Looking to emulate his win at this track when returning from a lay-off last prep. One of the genuine hopes in the race. CHARGING AERO (5) is in top form, most recently recording a win by 1.75 lengths over 6f at Saratoga (Dirt) to make it two on the bounce. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the lead. Will give a great sight. KUNSHAN BRIDGE (1) got well back over 6f at Saratoga (Dirt) last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 7 lengths away in eighth. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. POGI (7) is resuming from a lay-off of ten weeks and having his first run for the Michelle Giangiulio yard. Was in the placings when when resuming from a lay-off last campaign at Monmouth Park (Dirt) over 6f.
