SAFFA'S DAY (9) changes rider since being well held last time in seventh over 7f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on May 30. Forgive the last run worth following up. MOTORCADE (12) built on a nice second two starts back at Churchill Downs (Dirt) with a win as favourite over 6f at Churchill Downs (Dirt) three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot score again. GANGLY (4) is back from a break of three-and-a-half months. Only raced once last campaign which was a narrow defeat over 7f at Gulfstream Park (Dirt). Makes plenty of appeal. JOKING WAY (7) was below his best last time, finishing seventh and beaten 9 lengths over 6½f at Aqueduct (Dirt). Best figures measure up nicely. Solid top-three prospects.
