1. BLAVATKY has staying bloodlines, won the last race warming up close home. GAABRIO was slow off yet finished well in million race, may handle the present trip also. SAVAGE BEAUTY ran a pathetic race as a favorite, can not visualize a sudden change in short time. ATALYA is the best on tracks, had finished on well in last race but sudden jump to Derby distance is a big issue for a youngster.
GAABRIO(2)-WIN
ATALYA(4)-PLACE.
