In a very open handicap it might be worth taking a chance on bottom-weight AMATEUR. The form of the Carlisle race he was second in early last month has been boosted several times since and he looks sure to go well if returning from wind surgery in similar form. Manofthemountain, Cuban Pete and Nestor Park head the many dangers.
