Pedroia and Jiddy can show up well, but SCATTERED SHOWER is fancied to hit the target again. She showed a great attitude when landing a sixth career victory over 6f here last month and is already proven at this longer distance.
Whiskey Runner and Bold Harmony hold solid claims, but preference is for the hat-trick seeking THATS THE TICKET. He hasn't put a foot wrong in both starts so far this year and looks sure to be in the thick of things again.
Hat-trick seeking She's The Prize rates a leading contender, as does Pretty Much Mine. The vote, however, goes to WILLA WANDO. She was an impressive winner over the extended 1m here last time and has a great chance of following up on her sprinting return.
SHOES FOR JLO takes a drop in class and looks sure to make a bold bid with her yard in flying form. Similar comments apply to Russian Rhapsody and she poses the greatest threat, while Emotional Lady holds solid each-way claims.
USBEK THUNDER appeared to rediscover some form returned to this trip last time out and he can get his head back in front in a contest that won't take a great deal of winning. New Believer can land the forecast with Fifty Six next best.
RUSSEL'S RUN ran a rare poor race at Charleston on his most recent outing but he had been in excellent form prior to that and is worth another chance now dropped in class. Do The Math heads the danger, though Channel Quest can't be discounted in his hat-trick bid.
The switch from the all-weather track at Turf Paradise to the dirt course at this venue can spark improvement from LOVE'S DREAMS who gets the vote. Wild Skye and Normal Norm just missed out when last sighted and would be deserving winners here.
A change of scenery can do the trick for HARD TO PLEASE who can prove too strong for these rivals if bouncing back to form. Whistling Brahms and Vortex filled the places (in that order) at this venue and can get on the premises again.
BEAU FORTUNE was closer than his fifth-place position suggests when trailing a subsequent winner at Mountaineer and looks the one to plump for. Power Of Gospel looks a massive danger after narrowly missing out at Turf Paradise and Mar Bravo can do better now dropped into a maiden claimer.
