(# 8) WOODLANDER - Hard-hitter just missed at this distance in last. Contessa charge appears to be cycling back up to his usual level of performance after tailing off a bit after the win to start 07. He's 3-for-6 over this turf and is a dangerous runner, especially if given some legitimate fractions to run.

(# 6) Gimme Credit - Huge race in his second attempt of the season and second off the bench on June 17. He Became a different animal when switched to the grass for good last July. He's lightly raced and he is eligible to get better given the circumstances.

(# 4) Classic Campaign - By the looks of his latest work, this Mott trained gelding has enjoyed his two-month vacation just fine. Stakes winner rarely runs a poor one, and should be running about mid-pack in here. Makes a nice run whatever the pace scenario.
