MUSICAL MAESTRO (6) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when third at Aqueduct (Turf) over 6f, beaten 0.9 lengths. Big chance to score. DEVIL IN DISGUISE (10) is a talented colt who tackled a tougher race at his last run on May 19 and finished sixth behind Smokey Smokey over 6f at Listed level at Aqueduct (Turf). Can feature in this easier company. AARAJ (13) is a handy type who resumes after a break of five-and-a-half months. Only appeared once last prep when he finished eighth over 6f at Aqueduct (Dirt), beaten 14 lengths. Has scored when resuming from a lay-off before. Winning claims on best figures. OKALOOSA (8) failed to threaten when fresh from a lay-off last time out, beaten 6 lengths into ninth over 6f at Aqueduct (Turf). Should camp just off the leaders. One of the better hopes.
