Extremelyexclusive made a promising debut a month ago in a similar event and will have come on a bundle for the experience. Wordman starts out for a new yard after racing over 5f for Todd Pletcher but whether he'll stay the extra is another matter. Officer Country has shown up quite well in both starts to date over shorter and looks the type to be suited by the trip while PUNCHLINE appeared unlucky in-running over slightly further last time and should be in the firing-line. He just gets the nod as though Starship Bubba did most things right last time, leading for most of the way over a mile before succumbing close home, the outside draw isn't in his favour.
