Well-related FOUDRE has quickly gone about making up for lost time. He built on the improvement of his winning 1200m reappearance by following up at this level over track and trip last time. There should be more to come from him in his peak outing under a lenient 3-point penalty. SMARTEN UP and BLIND DATE are slightly better off at the weights on their recent course-and-distance meeting, so both should make their presence felt. UNITED FRONT (blinker strike), BALZI ROSSI, recently gelded CAPTAINS ALLIANCE, improving last-start winner ROCKANROLLIN and GRAN CANARIA (wide draw) can also earn.
