TOUGH CATCH (1) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better in stakes class at Keeneland (Dirt) over 6f, beaten half a length. That run should have him rock-hard fit now. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and a placing from three starts. Among the leading chances. WISCONSIN GAL (4) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 2.75 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt). Shaping up nicely and she cannot be discounted. GLEAN (2) comes here following a win over 5½f at Keeneland six weeks ago, getting home by half a length. Has definite claims. THRILLA (5) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing seventh last start over 1m1/2f at Keeneland (Dirt) six weeks ago. Should camp just off the leaders. Don't underestimate.
