HOZIER was outclassed in the Arkansas Derby on his most recent outing and the colt is taken to prove too strong for the opposition at a lower grade. Romp and The King Cheek appear best of the remainder.

OCEANS MAP has been knocking on the door recently and the four-year-old has been found a suitable place to get back in the winner's circle. Josef Is Real and Daddy's Cozy can fight it out for the placings.

JAXON TRAVELER won in great style on his most recent outing at Oaklawn Park and a repeat of that performance would make him a tough nut to crack. Mighty Mischief and Willy Boi are the most likely threats to the selection.

JUDI BLUE EYES had been knocking on the door before driving clear late on to record a sixth career victory on his latest start and is taken to add to that tally today. Out Of Sorts and Deciding Vote both have the ability to throw down the gauntlet to their rivals.

ABUELO PAPS was hampered on his last start and could be the one to beat if getting a clear passage today. He gets the vote and it wouldn't be a surprise to see either Baptize The Boy or Going To The Lead run well.

Although returning from a lengthy absence, MEAN MARY could be too classy for her opponents now being eased in grade. If running to her best ability, it would be a shock to see anyone else come home in front. Of the rest, Feel Glorious and Flighty Lady have the ability to follow her home.

Mcelmore Avenue saw his four-race winning run come to an end when a runner-up at Laurel, but could regain the winning thread here. However, it may be worth sticking with the in-form SHANE'S JEWEL, who was an impressive seven-length scorer last time. Hanalei's Houdini, Torch Of Truth and Burning Bright are others who could go close.

Wesley Ward's OUTADORE returned to the winner's enclosure when justifying favouritism last time and he could be the answer once again here. He is preferred to Brad Cox's Fair Grounds winner T D Dance and the returning Charles Chrome.

CHUB WAGON puts his unbeaten record on the line here having taken his winning tally to five when justifying favouritism in stakes company last month. She shades this over French Empire, who arrives on a four-race winning streak and Dontletsweetfoolya, who attempts to regain the winning thread here.

THE CRITICAL WAY bumped into two useful rivals when finishing third in a Grade 2 at Keeneland last month and that form gives him a big chance today. Others to note are Completed Pass and Hollis.

LAKI gets the vote following his victory in a stakes race over C&D last month, although Special Reserve and Seven Nation Army are others who could go well.

Kuramata and Somelikeithotbrown are both likely to go well but the vote goes to SACRED LIFE, after he finished third in a Grade 1 on his return to action last month.

MIDNIGHT BOURBON was roughed up early when fifth in the Kentucky Derby and couldn't give his true running as a result. He probably did well to finish where he did under the circumstances, and he wasn't given a rough time of things in the final furlong. Concert Tour looks progressive and although he was beaten at odds-on last time, it would be foolish to read too much into that. Medina Spirit can take third spot after his disqualification at Churchill Downs.

14

PADDYS DAY made it four on the bounce at Sam Houston in March and the 10-year-old is likely to continue in that vein of form. Rb Rich Lyke Me and Uptown Sandy Girl are feared most of the remainder.
