STARLING has been suited by coming from off the pace in his last two runs so stall nine shouldn’t be a significant disadvantage. He looked sure to follow up an earlier victory at Will Rogers Down here last time but was collared close home so Francisco Arrieta may delay his run today. Songsters and Nattytyme look held but Ameripoint will probably run his race again and Masterpiece Day was a ready winner over a shade further last month. Spring Loaded, on a long losing run, has a bit to find on the form book with some of these.
