PANCHO SLIPS AWAY (4) will find this a little easier than his second on debut two-and-a-half weeks ago, beaten one length at the end of 6f at this track (Synthetic). Sure to take a lot from that hitout so he will prove tough to beat. TURF CAT (2) settled in a rearwards position and never came on when resuming last start, finishing tenth and beaten 8 lengths over 6f at Kentucky (Turf). Has the class to take this out. BEE LA SOUL (6) was solid on debut last start when beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth over 5½f at Colonial Downs (Turf) on September 5. Should be competitive. HIGHTAIL FOX (3) turned in a much better run at his second appearance last time out when 2 lengths from the winner in third over 6f at this track (Synthetic). Can improve further and should be in the finish.
