10 Doublespeak(L) 120 Smith 4-3-7 Duggan 15-1
11 Jackin My Style(L) 119 Espinoza 10-7-8 Persaud 30-1
Red Jack earned good number when a clear-cut second in valuable race over the track last time; more to come. Shootdeworx makes first start since claimed by Jamie Ness; dangerous. American Buffalo drops and returns to dirt; right in the thick of this. Doublespeak would be aided by hot fractions.

14 Thor's Mjolnor(L) 119 Prado 6-3-4 Contessa 20-1
Mr Rosenthal owns sprinter's speed and could play out as the controlling front-runner; call based on price potential. Gossip Column likes to run second but tallied career-best final fraction in last; handle with care at short ticket. Why Not Whiskey packs potent late kick; very playable.

1 Who 121 Montalvo 5-3-7 Ryerson 8-1

10 Dry Humor(L1) 121 Alvarado x-x-x Reed 5-1
11 Bellamy(L) 116 Ortiz 7-5-8 Albertrani 3-1
Cameron Canyon is fleet-footed and training with a purpose for first start since Sept. 2; career best predicted. Light of Mercy makes peak start of form cycle and could be in the garden spot if pace meltdown ensues. Keyaly is 0-for-32 but owns fast numbers on best efforts; price will be tempting.

9 Pleasure Principle(L) 120 Dominguez 3-x-x Dutrow, Jr 7-2
10 Song of Aspen(L) 113 Coa 8-8-4 Persaud 30-1
Nail It adds blinkers after deceptively strong third when favored in debut. Saint Arthur drops back in with maidens after top-figured second in B F Bongard last time; could easily take this. Pleasure Principle is a fresh and rested runner from the Rick Dutrow barn; be no surprise.

1a Little Dale(L) 121 Rosario 9-1-7 Gullo 4-1
12 Handsome Harbor(L) 119 Morales 3-6-2 Schosberg 12-1
Mr. Ast comes off the bench and projects as the speed of the speed with aggressive ride. Bandits Heart returns to NY after fast-figured win in last at Lrl; very playable. Basalt exits solid score in last and now makes first start since claimed by David Jacobson; right in the thick of this.

1a Followmyfootsteps(L) 119 Espinoza 2-5-2 Voss 20-1
Main Track Only
15 Gallant Fields(L) 119 Rosario 6-3-1 Dutrow, Jr 4-1
Seal Cove visually and numerically impressed when winning last at Keeneland; more to come. See Tobe made sustained rally when second in 12-furlong Lrl Turf Cup last time and should pack amplified wallop at today's shorter trip. Joes Blazing Aaron owns speed and sharp current condition and could prove a very tough customer on an unchallenged lead.

11 G W's Hammer(L) 113 Coa 8-x-x Hertler 20-1
12 Spirit of Peace(L) 120 Velasquez 8-x-x Miceli 20-1
Harsh made menacing middle move in last and now gets class drop and favorable cutback; breakthrough predicted. Shot Rock is fresh and owns fast figs on 'A' game; very dangerous. Mr. Lit attracts Dominguez in debut for Dutrow; could be the goods. Alcolite fired 3-furlong bullet since last start and drops and returns to dirt; very interesting.

5 Our Entourage(L) 117 Dominguez 7-1-1 Jacobson 6-1
6 Willy Beamin(L) 121 Garcia 2-1-1 Dutrow, Jr 7-5
Called to Serve makes peak start of form cycle after being pace and trip compromised in last; rates close call. Willy Beamin owns fast figures and is 2-for-2 at the Big A; could easily romp. Our Entourage bested top selection two starts back and will be aided by return to dirt today; more than good enough on best.

15 This Hard Land(L) 115 Garcia 5-6-4 Ubillo 12-1
16 Big Business(L) 120 Dominguez 1-1-1 Jacobson 2-1
Margano owns fast late pace figures and is training with a purpose for first start since August. Plainview owns bullet-like speed and could easily takes this field wire to wire. Define packs solid kick on best and logged four tight works for first start in 142 days; worth long look. Barrel of Love logs fast figures with machine-like consistency; right in the thick of contentious nightcap.
