Chagall has only won twice, both over this course and distance, and all ground seems to come alike. Tio Esteban was just over 2 lengths behind him last month and is better over further but it's about time SILK CRAVAT was winning on Turf. Four-times an all-weather winner, he's 0-27 on Turf but has run some fine races in recent weeks and the assessor has given him a chance by dropping him 2lb. Guanabara Bay is another on a losing run but a mark of 41 puts him in here with a chance while Rain Or Shine, who completed a double at this trip in mid-summer, has been racing over a mile and can do better.
