BEER RUN (9) resumes from a lay-off of eight months. Could only manage to finish fifth at the latest run over 6½f at Kentucky (Turf). Looks the one to beat. DON CORLEONE (10) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish third, beaten 1.1 lengths, over 6f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Well-placed and will take running down. BOLT ACTION (8) was in the firing line on the bend and finished second last time over 5½f at Fairgrounds (Turf) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 0.8 lengths. Going up a level this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. MONSIEUR CANDY (5) was prominent at the bend and finished second last time over 5½f at Fairgrounds (Turf) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 0.1 lengths. Going up a level this time but he cannot be ruled out.
