All of this bunch will be heading for handicaps as soon as they get a mark although a few already have with Golden Wolf and Staff College being the best of them although the later isn't really living up to his mark of 80. Hats Off To Larry is an interesting contender with Rising another that may take a another step forward although more is expected from that one once he has a mark and the same could be said of Rainbow Rising . Star Guide is a newcomer to watch in the market but the speculative suggestion is OUTOFTHEQUESTION who could well be one who can show more than he has so far and go on into handicaps on an upward curve.
