Verdict

TANIA'S SONG showed a big improvement when fourth here on only her second start and debut for Raul Rangel. She should go close in this modest company and confirm running with Spectacular Strike. Lady El Prado was placed here last time but still beaten a long way.

Verdict

DR LIZ won her maiden here early in the year and ran well for a long way in a stakes race at Fair Grounds last time. She may prove good enough back at this level, while Pragmatical has bits of form in a similar grade and Mo's Love is usually thereabouts without winning.

Verdict

ZARB'S WINNIE was a well-beaten third on a wet track last time but had finished a lot closer when placed here before that and a similar effort should see her in the mix. Deep End has placed at Louisiana Downs this year, and Rowdy N Pearls is another with bits of form.

Verdict

MISS EMMA MARIA was not at her best here last time but gets another chance with her yard in such good form. Placed at Indiana earlier, she's taken to reverse latest running with the runner-up Fasten. The latter, Quick Rae Rae and Maline are others with a shout.

Verdict

NO RICHIE has shown up well in a couple of starts at Indiana and trainer Brad Cox has won with both runners at this meet so far. Worthy also has strong claims on his recent second here and should confirm superiority with both Salute The Street and Black Justice.

Verdict

LUCKY MON has been competing in tougher races than this since making a winning start back in August. He's preferred to Mediamaker as he drops in class, though the latter has gone close at this level the last twice now and beaten several of these in the process.

Verdict

A GREAT VICE was narrowly beaten here last time and takes a further drop in class for an in-form trainer. Joel Berndt's filly gets the nod to go one better. Yes Babe is a similar type to the selection and should go well ahead of the recent maiden winner Flashy Attitude.

Verdict

NORTH HULLEN won by over three lengths here last time and may be worth sticking with in a wide-open contest. Others with claims include D'urban Park and Tumult, with the latter beating subsequent winner Charlie Ballado here in October. Our Smitty and Valen Forever are others with a shout.
