Breeders Cup Turf Sprint winner NOBALS (6) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 6f in the G2 Kentucky Downs Turf Sprint Stakes (Turf) after he was prominent at the corner. SOUPER QUEST (8) went forward last start over 5½f at Listed level at Saratoga (Turf) and held on well for third, beaten 0.9 lengths. Meets some better types this time but he has the talent to test this line-up. Group 2 placegetter OUR SHOT (4) is ready to win after he just missed last time, beaten a nose into second over 5½f in stakes class at Saratoga (Turf). Meets some better types this time but this looks well within his grasp. Group 3 placegetter NO NAY HUDSON (5) was narrowly beaten into third when second up last start in the G3 Green Flash Handicap at Del Mar (Turf) over 5f. Drawn to enjoy a nice trail just off the pace. Sure to be thereabouts.
