Dexter Road can figure again having finished runner-up when dropped into this grade last month and beating Takedown and the disappointing Summer Spice in the process. The latter has something to prove now after a couple of poor efforts and Tell Me A Story faces a tougher task today taking on better opposition. But THE QUEENS JULES drops down in class as he returns to the main track and has every chance if running up to the same level as when third on the Turf here on his penultimate start.
