Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Bigdayonit. SNIPPETY LEGEND (2) deserved his win here this grade/trip and then spiked his numbers beaten over 1400m at Ascot, stalking the lead. The well-bred galloper keeps Faithfull and is well-placed to bounce back. PLAYING GAMES (5) was in range at Ascot and Belmont over this distance before a 1L defeat over 1203m at this track. Maps for a soft run and is likely to play a major role. THEHORSEMAN (1) is going well, and five of his seven wins have come at this distance. Will likely settle back and come late. GOLD KEEPER (3) was only fair to the line in the same contest off a string of narrow defeats. Ran his best race in the sequence three back when he led this trip beaten 1L. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Snippety Legend to win.
