Group 3 placegetter BORDER TOWN (3) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 7f at this track when he was in the firing line all the way. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. Group 3 winner SECRET RESERVE (9) returned from a break of five months and finished third over this course and distance last time out. Form here at this journey is very good with two wins from four runs. Expected to go very well. Group 2 placegetter LUCKMAN (2) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 7f at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Fitter and sure to run well. Group 3 placegetter SANTORINI (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/2f at Churchill Downs, beaten 6 lengths into fourth. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
