Group 2 winner LEGEND OF TIME (1) did his best work late and got up for third over this trip in the G1 Belmont Derby Invitational at Aqueduct (Turf) last start. Should run on into the finish again. Belmont Derby Invitational winner TRIKARI (8) is a progressive type still in first campaign but off to a great start to career. Already a four time winner including last start when scoring by a nose over 1m1 1/2f in the G1 Belmont Derby Invitational at Aqueduct (Turf). Won only start at the journey and looks a definite danger again. Group 2 placegetter FULMINEO (5) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by half a length over 1m at Listed level at Colonial Downs (Turf) as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins and three minor placings from six starts. Among the leading players again. Group 3 winner DETERMINISTIC (6) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 0.8 lengths back in second over 1m in Group 3 grade at Aqueduct (Turf). Worth noting Joel Rosario goes aboard. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals.
