APPEALINGMAGIC was an impressive six length winner when last tried in this grade and he filled the runner-up position in a better grade on her most recent start. La Moskette cannot be discounted following her win over C&D last month, while L X Sunrise should also be noted.
MODEL CITIZEN arrives here in fine form and he has won three of his four visits to this venue. Forty Nine Watts and No Brody No can fight it out for the places.
LUST FOR MONEY is a proven performer at this level and he looks sure to be thereabouts once again. Duval could the one for the forecast, while Red Razzo can complete the placings.
WHEREBLUEBIRDSFLY was an impressive winner here over C&D last month and with her yard in absolutely flying form with a 47% strike rate, she looks very difficult to beat. Kittery is consistent and should chase the selection home, while Monba Girl was an impressive maiden winner who may have more to offer on her second start.
ABIDING STAR continues on his winning streak and was very impressive on his last start over C&D last month when slamming his rivals by eight and three quarter lengths. The son of Uncle Mo doesn't need to improve much to take his tally to five in a row. Graves Island and Let Me Go First look credible threats on their form.
NASA boasts the best recent form coming into this contest and with his yard in excellent form, he shouldn't have much issue in getting back on the winners board. Gadget Man looks the main threat on his win here last month, while Saffron Hall should appreciate the drop in grade.
Hat-trick seeking YOUR PACE OR MINE is taken to get the better of the frustrating To The Flag, who has finished second in her last five races. She's Gifted struggled in this company last time and looks held on her form at this level, while Christinas Charm looks progressive but takes a hefty step-up in class and she could be found out at this standard.
The unbeaten EIGHTH WONDER is handed the vote to confirm her brilliance in a competitive looking Philadelphia Oaks. The three-year-old was three from three in her two-year-old career and connections will be hoping that she has trained on. Miss Inclusive was impressive when powering home in a $51,000 contest last month, while Spitfire Wind has lively each-way prospects.
Race fitness and experience at this level can prove just the tonic for DISCO CHICK. She has performed admirably in hot company on her last two runs, and a repeat performance could be enough to take this renewal. Four Inch Heels is chasing a remarkable six-timer, and although she looks progressive, this is a huge ask. Hey Kiddo and Burn Control are feared most.
BAKE SHOP finished a creditable third in a similar claimer on his debut for Patricia Farro here in March and should go very close if building on that performance. Real Power and Mr Brioni are also given a chance.
