Form Snapshot: He has won three times from 1m to 1m 1f. Finished 6l behind This Is Uscar when fifth of 7 at 35-1 on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 1m in June. Hard to assess on recent runs

Form Snapshot: He has won three times from 1m to 1m 1f. Finished 3 1/2l behind Hit Show when fourth of 11 at 18-5 on his latest outing in the Group 3 Hagyard Fayette Stakes - Grade 3 at Keeneland over 1m 1f in October last year. Worthy of consideration

Verdict
OWEN ALMIGHTY finished a strong second in Grade 3 company at Churchill Downs the last time out and gets the vote. Coal Battle and This Is Uscar also merit consideration.
