KING'S ROAD (1) was in the money on debut before finishing fourth last time, beaten 1.5 lengths over 1m at Santa Anita (Turf). Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Will play a major role. BESTFRIEND ROCKET (2) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 19 lengths when sixth over 6½f at Aqueduct five weeks ago. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he is set to turn things around. KITTY'S SON (6) is a talented gelding who was well held last time out in the tougher won by Pascaline over 1m at this track, beaten 16 lengths into sixth. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Winning claims on best figures. PAY BILLY (7) ran below expectations when fresh from a lay-off at Delaware Park (Turf) over 1m last time, finishing sixth and beaten 8 lengths. Finds a nice race and can atone.
