Was a little surprised on ATR Wknd Prvw that there wasn't more acclamation for Beau Liam coming in to this stakes debut. Suppose he has to answer 'class' and distance questions, but extension of May-August efforts sure projects well here. Plainsman, Aloha West (SCR'D) & Rushie are very viable alternatives and at 15-1, Ebben (SCR'D) intrigues with Margolis showing unusual aggression placing quality veteran in this spot for seasonal debut..
