Godolphin’s Caramelito failed to show the expected improvement for being gelded when returning a losing favourite on this Turf track last time. He may finish closer today but the less exposed DANCERONTHEBEACH is preferred. Beaten less than a length over the mile trip here on his return from a lay-off, Jose Chavez’ charge will be sharper for this and the slightly longer distance will also be in his favour. Hooyah faces an easy task having recently switched yards with Valuable Pillow preferred to Shandian of the remainder.
