Verdict

In a field made up of mostly newcomers, a chance is taken on FUOCO without the benefit for market clues. Although by Requinto, there's enough stamina on the dam's side of her pedigree to think she'll get the trip, so she's narrowly preferred to Gordon Elliott's representative, Douglas DC. Design Flaw has an experience edge and showed ability at Newbury on debut, so he's also considered.
