DITLIHI (9) missed the placings on debut two runs back then didn't feature last start when 7 lengths away in sixth over 1408m at Ellis Park. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is worth another chance. SUN GATE (1) made his debut last start and was just fair in finishing fourth at Ellis Park Turf (Turf) over 1609m, beaten 5 lengths. Drew wide on debut but has the inside gate here. Has upside and deserves another chance. MY BOY GARY (3) turned in a solid run on debut last start, beaten 8 lengths into third at Colonial Downs Inner Turf (Turf) over 1609m. Nicely drawn so he is a strong chance. Something for the Multiples: THAT'S FIRE (14) ASHER DASHER (10)

Having third race start. At big odds at debut, 4th of 7 at Churchill Downs on June 19 over 1006m, 1.5 len behind Bourbon Town with 54kg at $32.30. Last start 6th of 12 at Ellis Park on August 1 over 1408m, 7 len behind Title Worthy carrying 54kg at $4.25. Well-placed and should prove hard to beat.
