Confidence behind Senewalk would be hard to ignore given his connections and there will be no surprise should he leave November's debut run at this track well behind. He's liable to be short in the market however and so it might be worthwhile giving a chance to COYER JOYEUX. He's placed on multiple occasions over timber already and might finally get off the mark now tackling this trip for the first time. The remainder are not a strong supporting cast, with Gettysburg Address perhaps most likely to come forward.
