A wide open handicap rounds off the card and there is very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Choreography,Brigadore and Eternal Legacy and Staked A Claim and the tentative nomination is given to Choreography. The selection was a fair second behind Bobby Rose last time out and off the same mark here he will be hard to beat. Brigadore rates the main danger on his latest third behind Calabaza but he is becomming hard to win with. Eternal Legacy was a fair fourth behind Goodbye last time out and is another with place claims but he has yet to win over this trip. Staked A Claim is unexposed and open to improvement but he looks to have plenty of weight for what he has actually achived. Of the remainder Soto has the ability to go close off this mark if in the mood but that is a big if and for the winner we return to Choreography.
