AIN'T NO DISCO (9) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 6f at Churchill Downs, beaten 7 lengths after being prominent at the bend. This doesn't look as hard so he is a big chance to get the prize. COMMENDATORE (1) wasn't far away on debut last start over 6f at this track (Dirt), finishing second and beaten 4.5 lengths. Will be very hard to beat with that run under the belt. MAJORCA (7) is a two-year-old colt at the races for the first time. From a strong family that has produced at black type level, being by Volatile from Palma. Sure to be well-educated, being from the Todd Pletcher stable. Promising type who is ready to run a bold race. GOSGER (8) is a two-year-old colt at the races for the first time. From an elite family that includes a G1 victor, being by Nyquist from Gloria S. Should be thereabouts despite an awkward draw.
