In depth

Verdict

Several representing powerful yards including the returning Intrepid Heart. The later struggled in Graded company last year but should be more at home at this level and is preferred to stablemate Uncle Mojo. Similar comments apply to Network Effect, well beaten in a Grade 1 last time but competitive at this level, though CHEWING GUM may prove the one to side with. Bill Mott’s charge finished a respectable fourth in a Grade 3 contest here on his latest start having landed an allowance race at Churchill Downs in impressive style before that and should go close again. Squeezadios disappointed last time while Almashriq and Bourbon War are also better than recent efforts suggest.
