NAUTILUS (2) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 2.75 lengths over 1m at Colonial Downs (Dirt). Enjoys a drop in grade so he is likely to play a big role. BONDED (7) is coming off a last-start fifth, beaten 15 lengths, over 1m at Timonium. Credentials hard to fault. KERNESS (3) was prominent into the straight when resuming last start but weakened to finish third over 1m at Laurel (Dirt). Shapes as one to consider. ENGLISH BOB (4) finished midfield at his first run back from a lay-off last start, beaten 10 lengths over 1m1/2f at Monmouth Park (Dirt) when in the market. Has ability and shapes as a top-three chance.
