In depth

Verdict

The progressive Gufo takes a further step up in class after winning an allowance race and should be in the mix. But it’s tempting to give SOUTH BEND another chance despite missing the break in stakes races here the last twice given he placed on both occasions and may well get his head back in front today with a decent start. He finished in front of Summer To Remember last time and the Pletcher charge had earlier been beaten by Island Commish in a Grade 3 here but the latter has drawn high along with Ever Dangerous and the returning Don Juan Kitten. Proven Strategies could go well and is preferred to Doc Boy while Extraordinary will only race if this switches to the main track.
