Trev would have every chance if taking part but will only race if this contest moves on to the main track and CUCINA (NAP) is preferred if it remains on the Turf. Thought good enough to compete in the Grade 1 Summer Mile at Woodbine last year, Bill Mott’s charge has plenty of pace and has been gelded since winning over track and trip on last month’s reappearance. Quarky notched-up a string of placed efforts last year while Sarasota County finished just in front of Macho Blue when runner-up here recently and the latter has drawn wide today along with Captain Ron and Long Blade.
