KING MENDELSSOHN (9) was too good for a maiden field when resuming last start over 1m1/2f at Penn National (Turf), scoring by one length. Progressing well so worth following up. ACCONA (6) is a three-start maiden who finished eighth at his most recent outing over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) after he gave away a big start. This offers him a great chance of breaking through. BE ON NOTICE (2) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last time over 5½f at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 8 lengths. Likely improver with winning claims. IBN AL ARABI (7) is a six-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Jamen Davidovich. By Carpe Diem from Just Fine. Top-three chance.
