Habanero Gold won well at Laurel in January but, even though that was a slightly higher grade than this, today's contest looks more competitive. REGAL MINISTER won a $14,000 claimer two starts ago and he must not be discounted at this level. Gator Gold is also noted.
The hat-trick seeking ALL MY TRAILS won despite being forced to challenge very wide last time. He is clearly going in the right direction and he should have more to offer. Change Of Seasons and Kowboy King can fight it out for the places.
ITSMY ZIPCODE brings the best recent form to the table in this maiden and if reproducing her penultimate run at Delta Downs she should get off the mark. Hear Me Purr and Then And Now are also respected.
I CAME TO PARTY finished a neck second in a starter allowance contest last time and won't have to improve a great deal to land the spoils in this claimer. King Of Versailles and Bissinger complete the shortlist.
GENTLEDIVA was most impressive when winning a course maiden by almost eight lengths in November last year and, entitled to have improved again since, she is well worth sticking with. Faithinvictoria and the eased-in-class Little Miss Miss are also noted.
It is hard to oppose STARRY MOON, who has been running well enough in better races than this of late. The last time he was tried in this grade he was demoted after finishing first. Mr. Romance is a reliable performer at this level and looks to be the main danger, while Edisto Bay has each-way claims.
FARA'S KID is admirably consistent and should be thereabouts if not outpaced over this shorter trip on his return to action. Elevated and Drum Roll can battle it out for the minor honours.
MORE THAN SPECIAL wasn't beaten far over 6f at Penn last time and is one to consider closely now cutting back in trip. All About Abby and Bold Gabby are the pair expected to put up most resistance.
