Hot tempo expected from Ruby From Heaven and Varachino's Champ. GREENSIDE GIRL (10) is a daughter of Gimmethegreenlight from the Listed winner Country Girl who makes her debut. Strong profile and should play a role in the finish. BE ALL YOU CAN BE (9) is a filly by Vercingetorix from the stakes-winner Bilateral on debut. Strong profile and should play a role in the finish. VARACHINO'S CHAMP (12) is on the quick back-up since finishing fourth here a couple of days ago. Senior rider on. Not far away and among the chances. GULF OF AMERICA (1) is fitter and will give a start but wind up late. Among the leading chances.
