Bravura is the 2 to 1 morning line favorite running for trainer Bret Calhoun and will be ridden by Cliff Berry. He finished second in his last at Retama in a $75K Stakes restricted to Texas breds.
Texas Chrome is 3 to 1 third choice for trainer Shea Stuart. He finished 3rd behind Bravura on September 12 at Retama then won the $55K Governor’s Cup at Zia going 6 f in his next out. He’ll be stretching out for the first time and looks like he’ll handle the added distance.
Whence is the second choice at 5 to 2 off a maiden score at Keeneland in his last. He’s trained by Steve Asmussen.
Cash Bonus is another for Calhoun. He won his last on the lawn at Retama going 1 mile. Before that he settled in sixth place early in a $75K OC as the favorite before coming on to take the 6f sprint here at Remington.
