Destination and Harmony Road appeal on the form they have posted so far, but DETERMINED ACHOTI, who cost $285,000 as a yearling, is a most attractive proposition on paper and looks worth chancing starting out in a winnable race such as this.

MAX CAPACITY has shown up well in recent workouts, and he could be primed to strike on debut, with Hutchinson and Our Day Will Come looking best placed to chase him home.

VILLAGE PERSON made a successful debut over C&D in March and with the prospect of more to come, he could go in again. Eastbostonbenny and Enduring Gold are feared most.

WAR WARRIOR has been knocking at the door recently and any further improvement could see him break the maiden tag. Transactional Guy and Captain Eddie head the list of dangers.

The vote goes to MI DINERO, who can exploit an ease in grade to regain the winning thread. Contemplation and Takethefifth might not be far away.

PATTY CAKES had Don't Tell Deren (third) behind when runner-up at Delaware Park last time out, and she can go one better on this occasion. Anoint may also have a say in proceedings.

A comfortable winner over further at Woodbine last time out, ELYSIAN FIELD showed enough pace on that occasion to suggest that she can follow up over shorter. Avenue Niel and Belle Of Rights need considering as well.

AIR RECRUIT was well beaten in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf when last seen in 2023, but provided the four-year-old retains his ability, he will prove hard to beat at this level. Deuteronomy and Mission North are others to note.

War Code showed ability when sixth on debut at Laurel Park and is respected, but the vote goes to GLADSTONE. The four-year-old produced a much better effort to finish second at the same venue last month and he could be the one to beat. Ky Thirty Won is another to keep an eye on.
