GOLD LUCK (6) returns from a break of three months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 6f at this track. Rates highly and a bold showing is expected. SAHALAT (7) is a distance specialist who bounced back last start and got the job done by 6 lengths after being prominent at the corner as public elect over 6f at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Worth noting D Cannon goes aboard. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. Group 2 placegetter FORT WARREN (5) has been freshened up since he finished eighth over 1m at Ellis Park (Dirt) two months ago. Better than last start and is a chance in this line up. Multiple Group 2 placegetter DEER DISTRICT (2) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on July 20 finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths over 7f at Saratoga (Dirt). Worth plenty of thought.
