Donald McCain saddled the winner of this in 2019 and has two entries this year. Brian Hughes rides BARRULE PARK, a son of top NH sire Kayf Tara and a half-brother to smart stayer Vintage Clouds, and the newcomer gets the nod. Prairie Wolf won by four lengths at Kelso in May and should make a bold bid to defy his penalty but the market will probably tell us what to expect from the others.
