There may be better to come from Appealing Promise now she lowers her sights but the vote goes to AUTUMN LIGHT, who is holding her form well and can build upon her recent Ellis Park second. Ste. Mere Eglise is another to consider.
Tale Of Lucknfame is capable of impacting in this grade but a safer alternative appears to be LAOPE, a credible third over this trip at Churchill Downs when last sighted. Rocky Bear steps up in trip but is another to consider.
LION'S DUB ran his best race to date over this trip on his penultimate outing at Ellis Park and gets a tentative vote. The eased-in-grade Sgt. Mauro and Mainstay are others to consider.
BABY AFLEET scored in this grade on his penultimate outing at Ellis Park and would take all of the beating if running to the same level of form here. Others to consider are Radar Man, Royal Gentleman and Instant Message.
ROMANS REWARD rattled the crossbar over the extended 5f at Ellis Park latest and gets the verdict. The main danger appears to be Run Arnie Run although Taproot is another that merits consideration.
PARIS VEGAS gets the vote now lowering his sights as this assignment looks considerably easier than the Grade 2 event he contested at Saratoga latest. Bergerac and Yankee Injunuity are others to consider.
This can go to GRACE FOR GRACE, who was beaten only a length when second on her racecourse debut over 6f here earlier this month. Lady Haddassah also shaped well at the first time of asking, while Trois Famille completes the shortlist.
