COPPER MISSILE (6) settled well back last start and never threatened when 17 lengths from the winner in 12th over 1m1 1/2f at Keeneland (Turf). Finds a more suitable contest and can take this out. MO RHODES (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when fifth in a 1m contest at this track six weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish. BRILLIANT MAN (4) is back at the races for the first time since September 5. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last time in work over 1m1f at Ellis Park. Looks a strong top-three prospect. ROUSSETTE (3) finished 18 lengths from the winner in fifth last time out over 1m1f in Listed grade at Assiniboia Downs on September 17. Worth including.
