Verdict

Plenty to consider and a narrow vote goes to TRUE BLUE MOON who was in too deep last time but should have the strong pace he likes back down in trip. If the ground is on the easy side Aspen Belle will surely pose a threat and Enough Said completes the short list.
  1. True Blue Moon
  2. Aspen Belle
  3. Enough Said
