LANTANA LADY did the job nicely over track and trip last time and could take some stopping if in the same mood tonight. Ketubah and Fluxo De Caixa are others to consider.
LION IN THE SUN was mightily impressive when landing the spoils over track and trip last time and will be strongly fancied to go in again. Threetimesawonder and Lemondropsmypop are feared most.
CELERITA PLUS produced an impressive turn of foot when scoring at Penn National last time and, with that confidence booster under his belt, he could complete the double. Lake Friends and Sure Start are others worthy of consideration.
STARSHIP GIRL made a promising start to her racing career when third over this trip at Aqueduct last month and, with improvement expected, she looks the one to beat. Amongst the dangers are Grabthesilverngo and Bren's Friend.
JESSIE'S BOY was most impressive when making a winning debut at Laurel last month and looks one to keep on the right side of, with this slight drop in trip unlikely to be an issue given the speed he showed last time. Bellhouse and Private Tale can battle it out for the minor honours.
Tap Star looks a danger to all now eased in grade but marginal preference is for MINE FOR LOVE, who rattled the crossbar over C&D last time and is expected to confirm placings with the reopposing third, Caylee's Song, and find the improvement necessary to land the spoils. Wicky Jones is also considered a major player now operating at this level and cannot be ruled out.
FOOD RULES got the better of Luvyoutothemoon (second) when scoring over a route here last month and a reproduction of that effort would be sufficient to notch the double today. Giopi and Reflected Way make most appeal of the remainder.
UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE looked rejuvenated by the return to 1m when scoring over C&D last month and gets the vote while his well-being is assured. Lucy Dubai finished a well-held fifth behind the selection last time but can battle it out with Next Exit for the minor money if putting her best foot forward.
EXCLUSIVELY APPLE looks the most likely of these maidens and, following three creditable performances thus far, this appears an ideal opportunity on paper. Elsewhere, Zippity Kick and Fat Jack are of particular interest at the forecast prices.
