WHATDOYOUTHINKMARK (5) returns from a lay-off of 11 weeks and tackles a synthetic track for the first time. Important to note he opened last prep with a win at Hawthorne (Turf) over 5f on. The one they have to beat. MR CHIVAS (8) switches to synthetic for the first time. Won over 6f at Fairmount Park two starts ago but followed that with an unplaced effort, beaten 9 lengths, over 1m on dirt at Fairmount Park. Expect he will be prominent. CAMPTON (9) finished 1.1 lengths away in fourth last time out over 5f at Horseshoe Indianapolis after being in contention on the turn eight weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Strong top-three chance. SOUTH DECATUR (3) turned in another moderate effort last start when 10 lengths from the winner in tenth over 6f at Churchill Downs. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
