Verdict: It is hard to get away from SOLO FLIGHT. He is a leading player based on the strength of his most recent run, while Gorzo and Skippy Town should also be considered.

Skippy Town

Jockey: Keiber Coa Trainer: Ralph D Alessandro Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 3672

Comment: Lightly raced (this just his fifth race); more on his plate but has to be taken seriously.

Jockey: Michael Jr Davila Trainer: Assaf Ronen Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 345727

Comment: Has displayed improved form on last two starts; last of seven in a maiden claimer 14 days ago on debut for this trainer; this demands more than last time so looks risky.

Comment: Creditable effort to finish fourth, beaten 3½l last month (Belmont At The Big A) in a maiden claimer; recent display was promising so should be thereabouts.

Solo Flight

Who's Got The Tip

Jockey: Chris Russell Trainer: Ralph D Alessandro Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 67-976

Comment: Was behind two of these rivals two weeks ago when last here in a claimer; has won previously at this course; has struggled to factor since winning a maiden special weight at Finger Lakes in September; claiming value rises from $9k last time; latest efforts leave a lot to be desired so one to tread carefully with.

Tale Of The Tail

Jockey: Jeremias Flores Trainer: Paul Barrow Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 7614

Comment: Track has proven suitable before; has arguably shown improved form the last twice; split Alley's Song (third) and Who's Got The Tip (last) over 6f here (claimer) when fourth beaten 4l two weeks ago; more than capable if on song so has a chance.

Comment: Outran 16-1 odds when a close runner-up in a claimer at Belmont At The Big A 34 days ago; claiming tag drops from $17.5k; can have a big say if backing up last run.

Gray Haired Gus

Jockey: Kevin Navarro Trainer: Jonathan Buckley Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 333

Comment: Split Montauk Memoirs (runner-up) and Ragtime Prankster (fourth) when involved in the finish last month in a maiden special weight; lightly raced (running for just the fourth time); related to Stakes winner Shaft's Bullet; the stable continues to be among winners recently; has to be considered.

Like A Boss

Jockey: Joel Cruz Trainer: Beth Saul Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 2

Comment: Ran respectably on his debut (at Finger Lakes over 5½f) at 7-2 last month; if backing up initial run cannot be ignored.
