From the wide draw Sideshow Frankie can cross and set up a solid tempo. ICONIC PRINCE (4) did the job resuming last start, and looks capable of progressing through his grades this preparation. Happy to stick with him here. HEY JEALOUSY (11) seems to be going well enough this campaign, and finds herself in another suitable race today. Stick with. THE DARK SIDE (5) is worth keeping safe resuming. He'll take improvement from whatever unfolds today, but brings a class edge and might just prove too good even if this is short of his preferred trip. GILBERT'S GOLD (2) was only 2 lengths away last time and looks ready to fire here third-up. BULL DIMPLE RUM (7) comes into this second-up off a resuming win and could bob up without surprising. SUGGESTED PLAY: No reason to jump off Iconic Prince, who can go back-to-back here.
