The Godolphin-owned CODY’S WISH goes from strength to strength and landed a Grade 1 at Saratoga last time with Pipeline back in third. Bill Mott’s Curlin colt makes plenty of appeal back over today’s longer trip. Cyberknife is a dual Grade 1 winner over longer distances this year and has every chance as does Laurel River, who beat subsequent winner Senor Buscador over 7f at Del Mar but stays this far. Gunite steps back up in trip with something to prove but Law Professor arrives in better form than Simplification and could go well.
