ATLANTIC DANCER (9) switches to synthetic for the first time. Finished 3.5 lengths back in fourth on dirt over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs most recently. Terrific chance to win this time. COPPER MISSILE (8) was prominent at the bend and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Likely improver with strong prospects. ANGLICAN (6) settled at the rear then stoked up nicely in the straight to finish fifth over 1m here last time. Among the chances. SPEED INSTITUTE (10) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.75 lengths at this track and distance last start in a far better run. Looks well placed so expect another big run.
