Primed to go (3) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when second over 1m at this track (turf).Should settle handy in the run.Best figures should see him run well.Eastern extension (4) was well supported on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish third over 5½f at this track (turf).Likely improver who is expected to be in the finish.Great opportunity (9) is a first-starter by connect from sustained who has been a prolific producer including winners at black type level.Sure to be well-educated, being from the brittany russell yard.Promising type who is ready to run boldly.Conniving (15) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing eighth last start over 6f at churchill downs (dirt) seven weeks ago.Will drift back but wind up late.Sure to be competitive.
