Group 3 placegetter MAGNIFICENT ANDY (10) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish third last time out over 7f in the G3 Belmont Sprint at this track. Will drift back but is expected to be in the finish again. Group 1 winner WESTERN EMPIRE (1) drifted back from his wide draw last start then hit the line hard to score by a nose in the G3 Belmont Sprint at this track over 7f. Has a formidable combination with William Pike who has been aboard for his last two wins. Sure to play a big role. Group 2 placegetter TRIPLE MISSILE (7) finished 5 lengths away in seventh last time out over 7f at this track two weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Backmarker who gets home hard. Among the main hopes. Multiple Group 3 winner SEARCHIN' ROC'S (14) has been about the mark of late. Last time out was a nose from the winner in second over 7f in the G3 Belmont Sprint at this track. Should enjoy a nice run so she is not to be discounted.
