Hot'n Notty has form at Golden Gate but will need to be a notch above these drawn out widest of all. Westmont was thereabouts again when runner-up here recently and Cyclone Dan looks to have an easier task than of late. But PATRIOT took advantage of the drop in class when making a winning debut at this track last month and Steve Asmussen’s charge should be bang there at the finish once again having landed a more valuable claimer at Houston back in January.
