Table Forty Six easily won a maiden at Down Royal in May and has scored on the Flat subsequently. She should be competitive with her allowances while Nakajima Nate hasn't run badly in handicaps after his success in a Down Royal maiden. Hans Crescent has been racing in slightly better company but doesn't find much and Makhaaleb has won just once in 22 career starts on the Flat and over hurdles. SCENE OF THE CRASH bounced back after a poor run to gain a surprise victory over this C&D earlier this month. That was only his third start and there looks to be much more to come from the son of Galileo.
