Race preview
MAGIC GEM has improved on his last couple of starts, finishing runner-up twice here over a mile, and the drop back in trip might aid his cause in a bid to gain a first career success. Intervention hasn't been at his best on his most recent outings, but it wouldn't be a surprise if the five-year-old returned to form. Luxy Lou and Thaayer complete the shortlist.
