Verdict

CORRECT CHOICE (5) looks the one to beat in the opener as he finally steps out to the mile. His three runs back have been solid over 7f, but he looks ready for this trip now with CJP returning to the saddle. Has some versatility about him and with improvement expected, he can get back to winning ways. ROYAL TORONADO (4) went close last start over 1 ?m and lands here on the quick turnaround. The blinkers go on now and Pike hops back in the saddle in a big push for his chances. Should be one of the strongest late in the race. TRIO (3) finished in the money last start at big odds over 7f thanks to a great ride. Nash Rawiller hops on board now and he's likely to land just off the speed from the gate. This looks to set up nicely for him. OUR ROCKY BAY (7) is better suited out to this track and trip and can improve. BLAZING EMERALD (6) is next best.
