Race Overview
GOLD PALACE (1) ran well enough last time when sixth in late April in a Class 3 handicap and gets the marginal vote ahead of GRAZANO (2) who has dropped in the ratings after some unplaced efforts. Off a reasonable handicap mark he can be on the premises. ARMORIGENE (6) was a decent second two runs ago and warrants plenty of respect. SEMEUR (10) is also one that needs to be considered from a place perspective.
