(# 2) GULCH FEVER - Nice spotting by leading trainer Gary Contessa as runner goes third off a layoff after facing open claimers in last at the Meadowlands. Impossible post(11) on that tight course, yet he still bid strongly while wide. Faces restricted claimers today, and you'll get the leading trainer at a price.

(# 1A) Brushed Prince - Probable pace setter, or at the very least the pace-prompter, in a race without much speed on paper. Distance is fine, and Coa, who was aboard in his maiden win, takes over again.

(# 4) Perrycardius - Possible favorite is slowly coming around after nine months on the sidelines. Lack of speed is a concern, but he hinted that he was getting back to his mid-pack style in last. Class drop from allowances can only help. Serious contender.

(# 5) Classic Impact - Good run from a poor post(12) two back at Saratoga. Appeared to be heading in the right direction, but a troubled start in next hindered any further progress. May rebound at a big price.
