Novalist won twice over track and trip in December but the front-runner may find himself setting this up for QUEEN OF SKIES. The latter took up the running 3f from home to score over over a mile here last time and this shorter trip shouldn't be a problem. But Amenable may not be suited by today's distance after winning over 6f here last week while Interchoice Star faces much tougher opposition than he beat over course and distance last time. Pat's Legacy is another to consider but has done all his winning so far over longer trips.
