Despite struggling in the past couple of months, LEXCOAL should find this heat much more to his liking if appreciating the drop to a sprint trip. Speed figures suggest Fortune Minded can go close, but Rustic Ridge could be the main danger if his in-form barn have him fully wound-up for this return to sprinting.
A fairly open contest and ITALIAN DOCTOR C earns a tentative vote. Having disappointed as favourite when last seen over a similar trip at Fort Erie last month, he can make amends if utilising his good early pace. Bycarbs Destiny has plenty of experience but boasts a poor strike-rate, while Shore Blue cannot be ruled out if building on recent promising displays.
Recent speed figures recorded by HEY TI GARCON stand out prominently on paper and a reproduction of those efforts would probably be enough for James Lake's 5yo to finally get off the mark. Tupelo, Drop The Kid, and West Coast look best of the remainder and can battle it out for minor honours.
