GLOBAL PRIDE (3) finished second over 6f at this track (Dirt) last time out following a determined win two runs back. Commendable record at this trip with a win and six minor placings and should prove tough to beat. UNCLE BERLEY (6) improved sharply on his seventh two starts back at Churchill Downs (Dirt) with a win as favourite over 6f at this track (Dirt) a week-and-a-half ago, getting home by 1.3 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role. JULIA'S WARRIOR (7) is having his first run since winning by 0.3 lengths two weeks ago over 6f at this track. Has transferred to the Sturges J Ducoing stable over the break. Sure to make his presence felt. ONCOMING TRAIN (2) has switched yards since finishing fifth two weeks ago over 6f at this track.
