MICHAEL'S MOUNT is an interesting runner here returned to soft ground and the first-time headgear could see him in an even better light. Hochfield is an interesting runner given his connectios and he has his first start on tur; it would be no surprise to see him run a big race from his pea draw. Cotinga hasn't fared as well with her stall but there's evidence to suggest she is well-handicapped.
