Bombed out against Coloryoureggs when it ran against it before, but that run may have come a bit too soon. Has won nicely since then when comfortably beating the horse that was just beaten in a photo by Coloryoureggs in that previous race. A similar run to that could be good enough to beat the odds-on favorite.

Drew clear with the favorite when beaten a nose over CD last time in a decent time (third has won since). The second favorite today has been doing some promising workouts, but first time out over a mile might be asking a bit much. So, it looks like a good chance for this to break maiden.

Might be worth just having small stakes on a couple of outsiders in this, with question marks about the market leaders. This one has steadily improved for this trainer and has run as if this longer trip could suit. Could run better than these odds if the favorite doesn't bounce back from the latest blowout.

With question marks about the market leaders, it may be worth risking small stakes on a couple of outsiders just in case. The favorite blew out last time, so it has to bounce back, and the second favorite has yet to prove it's as good on dirt as turf. Ortiz Junior on board this one will be looking to take advantage of any underperformance by others today.

Hasn't been suited by the drop back to sprinting the last couple of runs. Previous two efforts over this type of trip were much better, so should go much better now back up in trip. Drops to claiming company for the first time today, and having Saez on board is usually a bonus.

Had a layoff since the latest run when fractious at the start and not running up to previous effort.

I am a bit split between this and David's Gem here, as they look like the two with a slight class edge. But neither is guaranteed to be 100% fit today, so I would keep stakes to a minimum. This one was off a long layoff last time and wasn't given a hard time of it, keeping on well under a hand ride to finish 4th. It will hopefully be sharper for that run today, so it should go well if doing so.

Not sure why they have got this price up as it's nearly double this all day.

Reasons to Drink looks the obvious one as it has finished in front of all of these in its two runs so far. But a case can be made for a few that might improve enough to beat it, including this one which stumbled a bit at the start on its debut and was not given a hard race, coasting home but not beaten far in the end. Could improve plenty today, so at a double-figure price, it looks worth a go.
