C&D winner of a maiden in January, UNCLE HENRY has been beaten here since, but the handicapper appears to have given the Joseph O'Brien-trained four-year-old a chance here to out-point his biggest rival the hat-trick seeking Park Row who is in scintillating form of late. C&D winners, Dancing Doll and potential improver, Marine One look the best of the rest.
