HONOR THE CROSS (5) is a two-start maiden who was unplaced on debut then improved to finish second last time over 1m at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Backmarker who gets home hard. Can get off the mark this time. CARENTAN (4) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 6f at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. SECRET SATURDAY (1) is a three-start maiden who finished eighth, beaten 36 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m1/2f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Backmarker who keeps coming. Will be picking them up late. TEAM TRAVIS (6) last appeared six-and-a-half weeks ago over 6½f at Gulfstream Park when he finished fourth. This is his first run for the Andrew Simoff stable.
