Race Tip

BORN FLAWLESS (8) settled well back then made some inroads and finished 14 lengths away in sixth last time out over 6½f at Keeneland four weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will play a major role. ON A SPREE (3) went fast early over 1m1/2f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) last time and went on to score by 4 lengths. Meets some better types this time but he has the talent to test this line-up. GUN RUSH (7) is progressing well this campaign. Opened with a eighth at Turfway Park (Synthetic) two starts back then landed the prize by 7 lengths as favourite last time out after being in the firing line on the turn over 1m1/4f at Hawthorne (Dirt). Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge. SUPER CURIOSO (1) has been kept fresh since finishing second over 1m at Gulfstream Park (Dirt) four weeks ago. Was a determined winner two runs back. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Solid claims on best form.
