Group 1 placegetter FEROCIOUS (1) did a good job last start to finish second in Group 1 grade at Saratoga (Dirt) over 7f, beaten half a length. Cherry-ripe now. Extra trip a plus hard to beat. READY FOR PEACE (11) lines up on the back of a 4 length third over 1m at Kentucky. Best form puts him right in this. EAST AVENUE (5) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 6f at Ellis Park (Dirt) six weeks ago. Sure to play a major role. Group 3 placegetter TENACIOUS LEADER (9) showed good speed and fought on for second over 1m1/2f in the G3 With Anticipation Stakes at Saratoga (Turf) last time. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and a minor placing from three starts. Best form too good to ignore.
