KAREN'S COVE (NAP) came round the outside to score in similar company last time and can complete a double. Mustang Cat keeps changing barns and is having his first start here since runner-up at Fair Grounds in March while He Iz Gone has been racing in slightly better company and will appreciate the drop in grade. He finished behind Joe Di Baggio here in March and the latter, a dual winner at the end of last year, looks the main threat.
