PALHACO (4) finished sixth over this distance, beaten 3 lengths, at his latest outing. Form over this journey is strong, boasting two wins from four starts. Has a high cruising speed. Leading contender. LEGENDARY LORE (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start when he worked home well but found a couple better over 1m at Ellis Park, beaten 2.25 lengths. The engagement of Keith J Asmussen is a positive move. Has the class to take this out. BREADMAN (1) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when sixth over 1m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Has the class to produce a better result. QUENCIO (5) has not appeared since he finished fourth over 6½f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on June 20. Makes plenty of appeal.
