Another wide-open handicap and at forecast longer odds, it may pay to side with DROMANTINE, who is down to a career-low mark and has a first-time hood applied along with cheekpieces worn previously. Toughen Up produced a rare below-par performance at this track 4 months ago and he's feared most provide he's ready to roll. Handicap debutant Hijo de La Luna and Little Keilee complete the shortlist.
