(# 4) MADDY'S LION - Makes his third start of his current form cycle, and picked it up quite a bit in last at Monmouth. Fits this price tag and this group particularly well, and think he'll be on the lead or just off of it.

(# 8) Royal Moment - Barn (Asmussen) can get them ready with the best of them. Gelding's been away a little over a year, and has been working in earnest at Belmont for his return. Has big speed and has raced against and beaten tougher.

(# 6) Shaky Town - Claimed by Jacobsen from Contessa last out, he's given him about six weeks of a freshening for this contest. Carefully spotted just below the haltered price-tag, he cuts gelding back in distance for this attempt.

(# 5) Bold Mon - Sprinting specialist, showed some signs in last pair after a poor try at a mile at Belmont. Nice figure earned against a tough bunch two back at Belmont.
