It is hard to be positive about many of these, but there was some encouragement to be gained from SERGIO's latest run and he may be the answer with the champion jockey taking the ride. Yellow Kangaroo and Sizing Sahara are two who would make some appeal if supported in pre-race markets. Taken By Force and Phoenix Rock have fewer miles on the clock than most in this, therefore either could improve enough to take advantage of their low weights.
