Verdict

WHEELY (4) resumed sharply improved beaten narrowly this track/trip. Strips fitter and CJP stays aboard. He won't have to improve much to take this out. BAHNBOUGLE BABY (11) was also much better first-up, beaten 2.7L over this distance at Belmont. She can make the finish with the extra fitness. NEXT DESTINATION (8) resumed here in the Wheely race at monster odds but closed to within 1.7L after settling at the back of the field from the 13 barrier. There was a lot to like about that and she is sure to sit closer today from the inside barrier. Fitter and consider. BHULLAR (6) resumed in good order at Belmont and the longer sprint will suit. In the mix.
