(# 4) SWORD OF DUBAI - Has found a new home for himself on the grass. All starts on that surface are strong efforts and his record on this course is (5-1-2-1). Excellent figures reached in his trio of starts this year and a repeat of any of those would put him on the line here.

(# 9) Topside Trader - Continues to run well without getting the job done. Returns here after finishing third in a 8.5-furlong race at Belmont in last. Should be in the first grouping down the backstretch and if he can save some ground before launching his rally he would have a shot.

(# 3) Letter Perfect - Resides in a top barn in Alan Goldberg, and lightly raced son of A.P.Indy set some fast fractions when blinkers were added in last at Monmouth. Was under pressure most of the race and didn't give way until late. This is his third start of 07, and he may improve.
