(# 6) CARDIFF ROAD - Makes his initial run ever against fellow state-breds after running out of town in his first five races. Troubled trip in last at Colonial - his second start with blinkers. Now with Glenn Disanto, he was previously with a good horseman in Dan Smithwick. Nice work on the grass here on August 3.

(# 2) You Sure - Think the rail draw will automatically have him in a better position than in his last run at one mile at Belmont. Turf efforts are his best, and his figures put him squarely in this.

(# 7) Dubliner - Probable favorite has run second five-straight times at this level, and twice at this 1 1/8-mile distance. Obvious contender, he has been beating the chalk in all of the place finishes that he has racked up.

(# 10 ) Sacred City - Nice run in initial race at tough debut distance of seven-furlongs. Trainer Toscano adds Lasix, and gelding needs to negotiate a good trip from a poor draw.
